Thyroid Cancer

Thyroid cancer is a type of cancer that originates in the thyroid, a small gland located at the base of the neck. It is most commonly diagnosed in adults between 25 and 65 years old, although it can affect people across all ages. Symptoms of thyroid cancer may include a lump or swelling in the neck, pain or discomfort in the throat area, difficulty swallowing or breathing, and persistent hoarseness.

If you suspect you may have thyroid cancer, it is important to receive a diagnosis from a qualified medical professional as soon as possible. Treatment options depend on the type of thyroid cancer and how advanced it is but typically include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or hormone therapy. Working with an experienced oncologist at a specialized thyroid cancer hospital is essential for developing the most effective and appropriate treatment plan.
