In life, many children will have thick necks. When they are young, they will have thick necks because the food they eat does not contain iodized salt. Later, the country invented a vaccine specifically for thick necks. Many children will be vaccinated after birth. After that, this disease is rare. However, some children will also have thick necks due to nutritional reasons. So what is the reason for children's thick necks?
Many children will develop big necks due to abnormal diet, which is very uncomfortable to see. Let me explain to you the reasons why children have thick necks. First of all, a thickening of the neck means an enlarged thyroid gland. There are many patients with enlarged thyroid gland nowadays. A thickening of the neck will not only affect the patient's appearance, but also have a serious impact on the patient's physical and mental health. A child's body is in the development stage. We must learn to let the child grow healthily and avoid the deterioration of diseases that may lead to physical abnormalities. Secondly, when the thickening of the neck is accompanied by other symptoms, such as bulging eyes, increased appetite, weight loss, heat intolerance, palpitations, etc., you should be alert, as this may be a symptom of hyperthyroidism.Finally, some foods can cause the neck to become thicker, that is, long-term consumption of certain foods may cause thyroid enlargement. For example, the organic cyanide contained in cabbage will affect the oxidation of iodide, which will cause a certain degree of obstruction in the synthesis of thyroid hormones, thereby causing compensatory enlargement of the thyroid gland. The thioureas contained in radishes, rue, etc. can cause thyroid enlargement.
If a child has a thick neck, it is important to learn how to treat it in time. Generally, diet therapy is sufficient for children. Do not deliberately give the child medicine. Learn to let the child actively participate in physical exercise and maintain a good mood. To provide children with adequate nutrition, they should eat more iodized foods, actively participate in physical exercise, eat more seafood, and maintain a good mood. |
