Thyroid nodules can be categorized into benign thyroid nodules and malignant thyroid nodules. For benign thyroid nodules, most of them are treated conservatively if there is no pressure symptoms; if the thyroid nodule presses on the surrounding organs and causes discomfort, surgery can be considered. Surgery can be considered if the thyroid nodule is pressing on the surrounding organs and causing discomfort. Malignant thyroid nodules need to be actively treated with surgery. 1. Benign thyroid nodules: for benign thyroid nodules patients do not have local compression symptoms, generally do not need surgery, patients usually pay attention to observation, regular examination of the thyroid ultrasound, to understand the size of the thyroid nodule changes can be. If the diameter of the thyroid nodule is too large and there are symptoms of pressure, this situation should be timely surgical treatment. 2. Malignant thyroid nodules: When patients are diagnosed with malignant thyroid nodules, thyroidectomy should be performed regardless of the size of the nodules. When the patient is clear about the thyroid nodule, he should go to the local hospital for relevant examination in time, and find out the problem as early as possible, so as to avoid delaying the condition.
