Thyroid Disorders and Heart Conditions

• The thyroid gland is shaped like a butterfly and
  it is located in mid of the neck slowly and
  besides to our neck muscles, but anterior to the
  trachea or airway. 
• Through the hormones, it builds, the thyroid
  gland impacts almost all of the metabolic
  activity in your body. Thyroid disorders can
  scale from a small, harmless goiter (enlarged
  gland) that needs no treatment to
  life-threatening cancer. The most common thyroid
  problems involve the abnormal production of
  thyroid hormones. Too much thyroid hormone
  results in a condition known as hyperthyroidism.
  Insufficient hormone production leads to
  hypothyroidism.

• The major handle of thyroid hormone synthesis and
  secretion resides at the level of the pituitary
  gland, a small endocrine gland that occupies at
  the bottom of the brain. The pituitary gland,
  when performing normally, can correctly sense
  whether the amount of circulating thyroid hormone
  is suitable, and handles the thyroid gland via
  production and release of a pituitary hormone
  known as thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH).
  Diseases of the thyroid may be capricious
  categorized into problems of thyroid hormone
  production (too muchHyperthyroidism) or (not
  enoughHypothyroidism) or thyroid growth or
  enlargement (diffuse symmetrical enlargement,
  single or multiple benign nodules or thyroid
  cancer). Some patients may have both a bother in
  thyroid function and may also have an expand
  thyroid with one or more thyroid nodules. When
  thyroid disease produces as a result of problems
  with the thyroid gland itself, it is raised to as
  Primary Thyroid Dysfunction (hypo or
  hyperthyroidism, etc). Alternatively, if thyroid
  hormone levels are unusual as a consequence of
  hypothalamic or pituitary problems, this is
  referred to as Secondary Thyroid Dysfunction
  (hypo or hyperthyroidism, etc).

• The examination of the thyroid can be brought
  about from the front or back position. The neck
  is curved to relax the neck muscles, which can be
  affably displaced to examine each thyroid lobe.
  In many examples, the deep fiddle of the neck is
  necessary to feel the Thyroid Gland, which often
  elicits an uncomfortable choking sensation. Some
  supremacy advocates self-examination of the
  thyroid using the thyroid neck check. While in
  front of a mirror, focus on your neck and swallow
  some water. If a large bump or asymmetric
  swelling becomes visible, see your physician for
  a more complete neck examination.
