Thyroid swelling, also known as a goiter, is the enlargement of the thyroid gland, located at the base of the neck. This condition can be caused by various factors, including iodine deficiency, autoimmune disorders (such as Graves' disease or Hashimoto's thyroiditis), thyroid nodules, or even thyroid cancer. The swelling may be visible or felt as a lump in the neck and can sometimes cause difficulty swallowing or breathing, especially if it grows large enough. Symptoms may also include changes in metabolism, weight gain or loss, fatigue, and temperature sensitivity. If you notice a swelling in the neck, it is important to consult a doctor for evaluation and possible tests (like blood tests, ultrasound, or biopsy) to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
