Thyroid Cancer: Types, Symptoms & Treatment Options | Surgical Oncologist-KIMS Hospitals, Gachib
Thyroid cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tissues of the thyroid gland. The thyroid gland is a small, butterfly-shaped gland that is located in the front of your neck. It produces hormones that help regulate your body's metabolism, heart rate, and other important functions.
There are four main types of thyroid cancer: papillary, follicular, medullary, and anaplastic. Papillary and follicular thyroid cancers are the most common types. They are often slow-growing and highly treatable. Medullary thyroid cancer is less common, but it can be more aggressive. Anaplastic thyroid cancer is the least common type and is the most aggressive.
The symptoms of thyroid cancer can vary depending on the type and stage of the cancer. Some common symptoms include:
👉 A lump in the neck
👉 Difficulty swallowing
👉 Pain in the neck or throat
👉 Hoarseness
👉 Swollen lymph nodes in the neck
If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to see a doctor right away. Early diagnosis and treatment are important for the best chance of a cure.
