मायक्सेडेमा (गंभीर हाइपोथायरायडिज्म)

Thyroid

Myxedema is a severe form of hypothyroidism resulting from prolonged thyroid hormone deficiency.
It is characterized by swelling of the skin and tissues, particularly in the face and extremities.
Symptoms include extreme fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, dry skin, and slowed mental and physical activity.
In advanced cases, it can lead to life-threatening complications like myxedema coma.
Treatment involves prompt and carefully monitored thyroid hormone replacement therapy.

सबक्लिनिकल हाइपोथायरायडिज्म

Thyroid

Subclinical Hypothyroidism is a mild form of thyroid hormone deficiency where thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels are elevated, but thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) remain normal. It often occurs in the early stages of thyroid failure. Most patients may not show clear symptoms, though some experience fatigue, weight gain, or cold intolerance. It can progress to overt hypothyroidism if untreated. Regular monitoring and treatment are advised based on TSH levels and symptoms.

सबक्लिनिकल हाइपरथायरायडिज्म

Thyroid

Subclinical Hyperthyroidism is a mild form of thyroid overactivity where the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level is low, but thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) remain normal. It often occurs in early stages of Graves’ disease, multinodular goitre, or due to excessive thyroid hormone intake. Most cases are asymptomatic, though some may experience palpitations or anxiety. Long-term untreated cases can increase the risk of heart disease and bone loss.

थायरोग्लोसल डक्ट सिस्ट

Thyroid

A thyroglossal duct cyst is a congenital neck mass formed from leftover tissue along the pathway of thyroid gland development.
It usually appears as a painless, movable lump in the midline of the neck, often noticed in children or young adults.
The swelling typically moves upward when swallowing or sticking out the tongue.
Infection or inflammation can cause pain, redness, or discharge from the cyst.
Surgical removal (Sistrunk procedure) is the preferred treatment to prevent recurrence.

एक्टोपिक थायराइड

Thyroid

Ectopic Thyroid is a rare condition where thyroid tissue is located outside its normal position in the neck, often along the path of its embryologic descent. The most common site is the base of the tongue (lingual thyroid). This occurs due to abnormal migration of thyroid tissue during development. It may cause symptoms like difficulty swallowing, breathing issues, or a visible neck mass. Diagnosis is confirmed through imaging and thyroid function tests.

जन्मजात हाइपोथायरायडिज्म

Thyroid

Congenital Hypothyroidism is a thyroid hormone deficiency present at birth due to thyroid gland malformation or dysfunction. It can cause growth retardation, developmental delay, and intellectual disability if untreated. Early diagnosis through newborn screening is vital. Treatment involves lifelong thyroid hormone replacement therapy. Timely management ensures normal growth and mental development.

थायराइड नेत्र रोग (TED)

eye sight, Thyroid

Thyroid Eye Disease (TED), also known as Graves’ ophthalmopathy, is an autoimmune condition linked with hyperthyroidism. It causes inflammation and swelling of the eye muscles and tissues around the eyes. Symptoms include bulging eyes, dryness, double vision, and eye pain. In severe cases, vision may be threatened due to optic nerve compression. Early diagnosis and management are essential to prevent permanent eye damage.

ग्रेव्स रोग

eye sight, Thyroid

Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disorder that causes the thyroid gland to overproduce thyroid hormones (hyperthyroidism).
It is more common in women and often associated with goiter and eye symptoms like bulging eyes (exophthalmos).
The condition leads to symptoms such as weight loss, rapid heartbeat, anxiety, and heat intolerance.
It results from antibodies stimulating the thyroid to produce excess hormones.
Early diagnosis and proper management can prevent severe complications and improve quality of life.

तीव्र (दमनकारी) थायरॉयडिटिस

Thyroid

Acute thyroiditis, also called suppurative thyroiditis, is a rare bacterial infection of the thyroid gland.
It develops rapidly and can cause severe pain, redness, and swelling in the neck.
Symptoms often include fever, difficulty swallowing, and general malaise.
The infection may result from direct spread from nearby structures or bloodstream infection.
Treatment involves prompt antibiotics, drainage of abscess if necessary, and supportive care.

मौन (दर्द रहित) थायरॉयडिटिस

Thyroid

Silent thyroiditis, also called painless thyroiditis, is an autoimmune inflammation of the thyroid gland.
It typically causes a temporary phase of hyperthyroidism, followed by hypothyroidism, without neck pain.
The condition may occur spontaneously or postpartum and is more common in women.
Symptoms include fatigue, palpitations, weight changes, and mild neck swelling in some cases.
Treatment focuses on monitoring thyroid function and managing symptoms; most cases resolve spontaneously.
