Question 2

hi i have hypothyroidism taking 25 mcg levothyroxin plus 2cm nodule on my thyroid how can i get rid of this nodule is this cancerous is there any med ?

Accepted Answer

Good questions: B"sd
the only way to get rid of a nodule is by surgery.  Taking thyroid hormone was used in the past, but for true (not pseudo) nodules this probably does not work.  Commonly, for nodules over 1 cm a needle biopsy is done to exclude cancer or precancer.  If the biopsy is negative then follow up on the nodule by ultrasound is done to make sure it is not growing and need antoher biopsy or surgery.

Question 5

so i had a chest x-ray done a week ago, they found some nodules, well when i went back to a different emergency room they did a ct scan of my chest and lungs and found no nodules, is this possible? to just get rid of them over a week period?

Accepted Answer

: Most likely the CT is more accurate. If you are a smoker, please enroll in a smoking cessation program. Multiple areas of modularity often represent infection or resolving infection. Consult with your physician regarding risk factors such as a family history of lung disease. Watch for signs of fever,cough and sputum production.

Question 6

what would you do to get rid of a crick in your neck?

Accepted Answer

Anti-inflammatory: You may want to try applying moist heat to your neck 2-3 times per day and start a short course of anti-inflammatory such as advil or aleve (naproxen).  Make sure you have a good lumbar support if you sit in a chair several hours per day.  This will help with posture and will reduce stress on the neck.  If pain lasts greater than 2 weeks or worsens i recommend seeing your doctor.
