What dietary taboos do patients with thyroid nodules have? Where is Kunming Zhongyan thyroid hospital?

Thyroid nodule is a common clinical disease. Thyroid nodules are affected by age, sex, radiation exposure history and family history.

The causes of benign thyroid nodules include benign adenoma, nodular goiter, focal thyroiditis and parathyroid cyst.

Patients with thyroid nodules should pay attention to eat less spicy and irritating food, eat less fried and greasy food, and try to quit smoking and drinking, because cruciferous vegetables will secrete thiocyanate substances to stimulate goiter and should stay away from such foods.

Thyroid nodule refers to a lump in the thyroid gland, which can move up and down with the thyroid gland because of swallowing. It is a common clinical disease.

For patients with thyroid nodules, in daily life, we should first pay attention to alcohol prohibition and avoid smoking. Secondly, patients need to pay attention to eating foods with high iodine content as little as possible, such as seafood or kelp and seaweed. In addition, patients should pay attention to avoid getting angry, staying up late and being tired in daily life.

For patients with thyroid nodules, it is also necessary to consider regular cervical elastic color ultrasound examination to observe the size of thyroid nodules and the elastic score of thyroid nodules. If the patient's thyroid nodule elasticity score is below grade 4 and the nodule boundary is clear, in this case, it is more likely to be considered as a benign nodule, and it is recommended that the patient continue to observe.

If the patient's thyroid nodule elasticity score is above grade 4, the boundary is unclear and the surface is not smooth, it is an isolated single lesion. In this case, the possibility of tumor occurrence cannot be ruled out, and further puncture biopsy of local nodules under ultrasound guidance or further intraoperative rapid frozen pathological examination after surgical resection should be considered.

Patients with thyroid nodules should try to avoid using irritating foods, such as cigarettes, wine, tea and coffee. Some patients with thyroid nodules may be accompanied by hyperthyroidism. At this time, it is necessary to supplement enough calories to make the body's metabolism increase the speed of calorie consumption, which corresponds to diet.

But also appropriately increase the intake of some vitamins, increase the intake of protein, such as meat, eggs, milk, and eat more green vegetables, because the impact of iodine on the thyroid gland is more complicated, and it should be decided according to the specific thyroid function.

At the same time, we must guide patients to quit smoking and drinking, and try to avoid things that cause goiter.
