My mom suffering thyroid prblm and she went to hospital and now she take treatment for that they tell this is the starting stage no need worries. My question is is there any swelling at the neck

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

In thyroid disorders, swelling or enlargement of the thyroid gland, known as a goiter, can occur, but it is not always present. If your mother's doctor has advices that her thyroid problem is in the early stages and not a cause for worry, It is best to continue with the prescribed treatment and follow up for monitoring

I am 28 years old and I am taking steroids tablet..can it have side effects???

Female | 28

Steroids can impact your body ne­gatively. Common side effe­cts include weight gain, acne bre­akouts, mood fluctuations, and sleeping difficulties. This happe­ns because steroids inte­rfere with natural functions within your system. We­ight gain and acne result from hormonal changes cause­d by steroids. Mood swings and insomnia occur when steroids disrupt che­mical balances regulating emotions and sle­ep cycles. If expe­riencing these issue­s, consult your doctor immediately.

Sorry for my english I am 23 years old. For 7 years, I have been suffering from weakness in the bones of the face and lower jaw constantly from the slightest pressure on them. I had vitamin D test and my value is 5.5 very low, and my calcium is 9.7. The doctor told me to take vitamin D 10,000 IU per day for 3 months. Should I eat a lot of foods that contain calcium or not, and how much calcium per day for the 10,000 iu? Because when I take vitamin D supplements, I feel an itching sensation in the lower jaw, as if it is weakening more. The question is Should I increase calcium foods or make it less because i feel it's getting more weak, or what should I do to avoid bone erosion? And i'm afraid if calcium will be more than normal when i eat more calcium food because it's 9.7 now thanks.

Female | 23

Judging from what you said, you are having a problem with low vitamin D levels, which can result in the weakening of the bones. Taking 10,000 IU per day as your doctor suggested is good, but you should also eat foods that are rich in calcium. Do not forget to take around 1,000 to 1,200 mg of calcium daily. Consider adding milk, yogurt, cheese, and leafy greens to your diet. Talk to your doctor if you feel more weakness in your jaw or experience itching to adjust your supplements.

Hi I m on thyroid tablets of 125mcg eltroxin My current tsh is 0.012, t3 - 1.05, t4 - 11.5 Should I reduce the dosage to normalise

Female | 32

Based on the thyroid test results, you have slightly low thyroid levels as your TSH is 0.012. Your present dosage of eltroxin may be too high for you; this could be the case. Besides, these might be the possible reasons: you will feel jittery, lose weight, and have trouble sleeping. To correct the dosage, consult your doctor and suggest doing the treatment at the lower dosage to get your thyroid levels back in balance.

I am 21 years old, my weight is only 34 kg and I have also done all the tests, there is no such symptom came in reports , I want to increase my weight and breast increase, so please suggest me medicine.

Female | 21

You want to get fit. Be­ing too thin can happen if your body uses up food fast or if you do not eat a lot. To gain we­ight, eat good stuff like fruits, veggie­s, grains, and protein. Do not skip meals. Eat often. As for bre­asts, they come in all shapes and size­s for each girl. Pills may not change them much.

Tsh level 5.910 is normal?

Female | 29

A TSH level of 5.910 is slightly above the normal range, but  it's quite common. This could indicate hypothyroidism, where your thyroid gland isn't producing enough hormones. It could also be affected by factors like stress or medication. To get a clearer picture, your endocrinologist may recommend further tests like T4 and T3 levels. In the meantime, focus on a healthy lifestyle with balanced nutrition and regular exercise. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.

Hi , My belly has been growing day by day and been losing hair , peeing alot and my lower back is very stiff

Female | 23

You might be experiencing symptoms of diabetes. In diabetes, weight gain can lead to a bigger belly, and hair loss may occur. Frequent urination is common as your body tries to remove excess sugar. Lower back stiffness could be related to kidney issues linked with diabetes. It's important to eat healthy, exercise, and see a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

It is essential to cooperate with your doctor in order to identify the safe dosage of thyroid medication for you. Taking the right amount can help alleviate symptoms and keep you well.

Age:- 48 yrs Male, Got tested HbA1c n reported as>10% , & Mean blood glucose level is 263.3 mg/ dl.

Male | 48

It looks like the blood sugar level of this 48-year-old person is extremely high. If the HbA1c is over 10% and the average blood glucose level is 263.3 mg/dL, it means the diabetes is not well controlled. Common symptoms include frequent urination, thirst, weight loss, and tiredness. This could be due to not taking medications properly or not following a healthy diet. To manage this, eat a balanced diet, take their medicines as prescribed, and exercise regularly.
