Clinically, the following treatment methods are often used depending on the size and clinical symptoms of thyroid nodules: 1. As thyroid nodules are basically benign lesions, if they are small in size and do not cause local tracheal, esophageal or nerve compression symptoms, patients may be advised to review their thyroid nodules at 3-6 months to monitor changes. 2. If the nodules are small in size and do not cause local compression of nerves, blood vessels, trachea and esophagus, the patient may be advised to review the thyroid ultrasound in 3-6 months to monitor the changes in the nodules and may not require fine needle aspiration or surgery for the time being. 2. Patients are advised to undergo timely surgery to remove the thyroid nodules or to use ultrasound-guided radiofrequency treatment for thyroid ablation, thus avoiding further enlargement of the nodules that may cause serious complications. In some patients, the nodules can cause life-threatening complications due to compression of the trachea and even asphyxia.
