Patients who have developed goitre are treated with Thyroidectomy to surgically remove the mass and continue with medications to treat the condition fully. Both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism can occur in patients with long standing iodine deficiency.

Health Q&A
Loose weight without health issues

I want to loose weight at-least 10 kg in 3 months but in healthy way. Please suggest diet plan and exercises

Vitamin or tonic

Here’s a more polished and structured version for posting on Practo: Hi Doctor, I am a father of 3.5-year-old twins — a boy and a girl. Earlier, their pediatrician had prescribed AtoZ Mango Flavour drops as a general health tonic/multivitamin. However, during the recent visit, he mentioned that it is no longer necessary. My children are starting school next week, and we are concerned that they may frequently catch colds, coughs, or infections from other children during the initial months. I wanted to understand: 1. Is it advisable to give any multivitamin, immunity booster, or health tonic at this age? 2. Are supplements like Vitamin C, Zinc, or any pediatric immunity syrups recommended? 3. Is there anything else we should do proactively to help strengthen their immunity naturally? 4. Are there any signs of nutritional deficiency we should watch out for before considering supplements? Both children are otherwise healthy and active. Thank you.

For nutritional supplements

I would like a consultation regarding nutritional supplements and overall health. Due to my busy schedule and irregular diet, I feel I am not getting complete nutrition from food alone. I am also experiencing hair thinning and some stomach digestion issues such as bloating and improper digestion at times. I want guidance on safe and suitable supplements for nutrition, hair health, gut health, energy, and immunity according to my age, lifestyle, and dietary habits.
