Does a goiter cause headaches?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Not usually: A goiter by itself will not usually cause a headache, but a goiter associated with hyperthyroidism can. Elevated levels of thyroid hormone can lead to higher pulse rate and blood pressure. This, in turn, can contribute to a headache.
