Painless Thyroiditis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Painless thyroiditis is an inflammation of the thyroid gland that, as its name indicates, runs its course without neck pain and can easily go unnoticed.
How it shows up: At different stages, an accelerated and then slower metabolism may be noticed, with symptoms such as changes in weight, mood, energy, or pulse rate, which many times resolve gradually.
Context: At times it appears in relation to particular periods of life or with alterations of the body's defense system.
Which specialist treats it? Its study corresponds to endocrinology, which assesses the functioning of the thyroid over time. When these changes are observed, the most sensible thing is to request a professional evaluation that provides guidance for each case individually.
