What to do if your neck is getting bigger and bigger while you are on medication for hyperthyroidism?

Hyperthyroidism is short for hyperthyroidism.

Some patients may have hypothyroidism after treatment. 2. Surgical treatment. It is suitable for patients with significant enlargement of thyroid gland and compression symptoms; moderate or severe hyperthyroidism, ineffective long-term medication, or recurrence after stopping medication or inability to insist on taking medication; retrosternal goiter; fine needle aspiration cytology confirms thyroid cancer or suspicion of malignant changes. Hyperthyroidism patients should be diagnosed and treated under the guidance of a doctor to avoid aggravation of the condition.
