It is important to include iodine-rich foods in your diet to prevent goiter. Iodine is an essential mineral that is needed for the production of thyroid hormones. When there is not enough iodine in the diet, the thyroid gland enlarges in an attempt to trap more iodine. This enlargement is called goiter.
Some good sources of iodine include:
-Fish: Seaweed, tuna, shrimp, cod, halibut
-Dairy: Milk, yogurt, cheese
-Eggs
-Iodized salt

The recommended daily intake of iodine for adults is 150 micrograms. Pregnant and lactating women need more iodine, 220 micrograms, and 290 micrograms, respectively.
Iodized salt is a good way to ensure that you are getting enough iodine in your diet. Most table salt in the United States is iodized. However, some specialty salts, such as sea salt and kosher salt, are not iodized. Be sure to check the label to make sure that you are using iodized salt.

If you are concerned about your iodine intake, talk to your doctor. They can recommend the best way for you to get enough iodine in your diet.

Severe cases of goiter can be diagnosed just by looking at the swelling at the patient’s neck but other procedures can be done for milder cases. Doctors can evaluate an enlarged thyroid gland by feeling your neck area for any nodules or tenderness. Thyroid blood tests are done to measure the amount of thyroid hormones your body has to determine if the gland is working properly.

Different imaging modalities can also be done to look at the thyroid gland:
▪Ultrasounds are done to “see” your thyroid and check for its size and presence of nodules
▪Thyroid uptake and scan uses radioactive iodine to evaluate the gland’s function and ability to absorb
▪CT Scan or MRIs are also done if the goiter is very large since it can also check if the goiter has spread to other parts of the body

If you have a family history of goiter or if you have any other risk factors for goiter, it is important to talk to your doctor. They can monitor your thyroid health and recommend treatment if necessary.

Most people with goiter only experience swelling at the base of the neck where the thyroid gland lies. If the goiter is small enough, it may not be noticeable to the naked eye but may only be discovered during a routine medical exam or an imaging test.

Excessive swelling in some cases can cause throat tightness, cough, voice hoarseness, trouble swallowing, and difficulty breathing.

Hyperthyroidism associated with goiter can result to metabolic changes such as:
-Heat hypersensitivity
-Palpitations
-Hyperactivity
-Increased sweating
-Fatigue
-Increased appetite
-Hair loss
-Weight loss

Hypothyroidism, on the other hand, causes the following:
-Intolerance to cold
-Constipation
-Forgetfulness
-Hair loss
-Weight gain

If you have a goiter or if you have any concerns about your thyroid health, it is important to talk to your doctor.

Goiter is a swelling of the thyroid gland. It is the most common endocrine disorder in the world, affecting over 200 million people. Goiter is more common in women than in men, and it is most common in people over the age of 40.

Most goiters are not harmful. They may not cause any symptoms at all. However, a large goiter can compress the trachea (windpipe) and esophagus (food pipe), causing difficulty breathing and swallowing. In some cases, a goiter can also produce too much or too little thyroid hormone, which can lead to health problems.

The thyroid gland swells as an adaptation in response to underproduction or overproduction of thyroid hormones. Some common causes of goiter include:
▪Iodine deficiency
-Lack of iodine in the diet is the most common cause of goiter since iodine is the material needed by the thyroid gland to produce its hormones
▪Hypothyroidism
-This condition describes an underactive thyroid gland
-Since the gland does not produce enough hormones for the body, it is overstimulated to produce more which leads to swelling
-This could be caused by Hashimoto’s thyroiditis wherein the immune system attacks its own tissue and causes the gland to swell
▪Hyperthyroidism
-This condition describes an overactive thyroid gland
-Goiter can also occur when the body produces too much thyroid hormones
-Hyperthyroidism can be caused by Grave’s disease

Less common causes of goiters include the following:
-Smoking (interferes with iodine absorption)
-Hormonal changes (puberty, pregnancy, menopause)
-Thyroiditis (inflammation caused by infection)
-Thyroid cancer

If you have a goiter or if you are concerned about your thyroid health, talk to your doctor. They can diagnose the underlying cause of your goiter and recommend the best treatment for you.

Goiter is an enlargement of the thyroid gland. The thyroid gland is a butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck. It produces hormones that regulate metabolism, growth, and development.

The most common cause of goiter worldwide is iodine deficiency. Iodine is a mineral that is essential for the production of thyroid hormones. When there is not enough iodine in the diet, the thyroid gland enlarges in an attempt to trap more iodine.

If you have a goiter or if you are concerned about your thyroid health, talk to your doctor. They can diagnose the underlying cause of your goiter and recommend the best course of treatment.

Dengue is a serious disease, but it is preventable. By taking steps to avoid mosquito bites and seeking medical care early if you develop symptoms, you can protect yourself and your loved ones from this deadly disease.

Follow the 4-S against Dengue:
1. Search and Destroy Mosquito Habitats
• Cover water drums and pails to prevent water from accumulating in them.
• Replace water in flower vases at least once a week.
• Clean gutters from leaves and debris to prevent water from becoming stagnant.
• Collect and dispose all unusable tin cans, jars, bottles, and other items that can collect and hold water.
2. Self-Protect
• Wear long pants and long-sleeved tops.
• Use mosquito repellant regularly.
3. Seek Early Consultation
• Consult a physician immediately if fever persists or keeps recurring after 2 days, and/or any of the other symptoms appear.

Dengue can be diagnosed based on a physical examination and a medical history. Doctors may also order blood tests to confirm the diagnosis and assess the severity of the infection.

There is no specific antiviral treatment for dengue. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and preventing complications. This may include:
▪Rest: Getting plenty of rest can help your body fight the infection.
▪Fluids: Drinking plenty of fluids is important to prevent dehydration.
▪Pain medication: Over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol), can help relieve fever and muscle aches. However, avoid taking aspirin or ibuprofen, as these medications can increase the risk of bleeding.
▪Hospitalization: In severe cases, people with dengue may need to be hospitalized for intravenous fluids, blood transfusions, and other supportive care.

If you are traveling to an area where dengue is common, it is important to take steps to prevent mosquito bites. You should also be aware of the symptoms of dengue and seek medical attention immediately if you develop any of them.
