1. Symptoms: Thyroid cancer often shows no symptoms in its early stages. Some individuals may experience discomfort or pressure in the front of the neck.
In advanced stages, it may affect the recurrent laryngeal nerve, causing hoarseness, or compress the esophagus, resulting in difficulty swallowing.
2. Self-Examination: Regularly check for any nodules or swelling in the central or lateral regions of the neck. If you notice nodules, feel pressure in the neck, or experience a sensation of something foreign, promptly seek medical attention.
