How about goiter? Is it necessary to go to the hospital?

Normal-sized thyroid gland is invisible to the naked eye. Once the thyroid gland can be touched by hand and moves up and down the neck with swallowing, even if it is invisible to the naked eye, it can be defined as goiter. At this time, the thyroid gland has doubled than normal, which is more than 30-35 grams. If the naked eye can see the fullness, swelling and even thickening of the neck under the larynx, it can move up and down when swallowing, indicating that goiter is very obvious and the diagnosis of goiter is easier to establish.

Simple goiter is generally not serious, but hyperthyroidism, thyroiditis, thyroid nodules and so on. Will cause amplification. It is suggested to go to a regular hospital for color Doppler ultrasound and thyroid function examination in time to clarify the cause.
