1, thyroid surgery incision is intradermal suture, do not remove the stitches, generally in the postoperative week out of the hospital. Within two weeks try not to posterior nail tilt neck to avoid the possibility of wound dehiscence. Three weeks later can resume work, need to pay attention to the neck straightening forging, to prevent scar contraction, affect the aesthetics. 2.On the day of surgery, the physician will pay special attention to whether the patient has choking and coughing when drinking water for the first time and how much the drainage tube drains; for patients with individual combined hoarseness or choking and coughing when drinking water after surgery, most of them are caused by tissue edema compressing and pulling the nerve, after 3-6 months, most of them recover naturally, and if oral neurotrophic drugs (such as methylcobalamin) can speed up the recovery. 3.There is no contraindication to diet after surgery, because the site of surgery is near the throat, swallowing will feel painful. On the first day, we should start with liquid and reduce the swallowing action, which can reduce the pain and discomfort. Resume normal diet after two or three days. 4. Post-discharge follow-up and medication: It depends on the type of thyroid pathology and the scope of surgery. In patients with nodular goiter or benign adenoma who have not had all of their thyroid gland removed, some of the remaining thyroid tissue may continue to grow or develop secondary benign and malignant tumors; in patients with postoperative hyperthyroidism, there may be hypothyroidism or recurrence of hyperthyroidism in the remaining thyroid gland; in patients with postoperative thyroid cancer, there is a possibility of recurrence and metastasis, so regular follow-up is needed. The follow-up includes blood sampling to check thyroid function and thyroid ultrasound; the follow-up period is usually 3 to 4 weeks after discharge from the hospital for the first outpatient examination, then once every 3 months, gradually transitioning to once every 6 months, then once a year, and finally once every 2 to 3 years. Postoperative medication is mainly oral thyroxine tablets (such as eugenol), the dosage of which is adjusted in the outpatient clinic according to the function of the thyroid gland, and the duration of medication depends on the pathological type of the thyroid gland.
