What should I do if hyperthyroidism relapses? This adjustment can avoid

The most special thing about hyperthyroidism is that it has a high recurrence rate. Even if it has been cured before, it will recur if the patient does not pay attention to the details in life. Recurrence of hyperthyroidism still needs to be treated continuously, and prevention work should also be done. So, how to avoid the recurrence of hyperthyroidism?

Regulate your mood:

Mental stimulation is a common cause of this disease, and symptoms are often aggravated by worry, emotional anxiety, and mental tension. Therefore, patients with hyperthyroidism should pay attention to regulating their emotions, cultivating their character, not getting angry, resting their minds, listening to elegant and pleasant music, and cultivating the habit of planting flowers, raising fish, and raising birds to soothe their emotions, calm their minds, and gradually eliminate mental symptoms. Family members and colleagues should also sympathize, comfort, understand, and care for them to avoid direct conflicts.

Combination of work and rest:

During the illness, patients should rest in bed appropriately. The resting environment should be quiet and well-ventilated. Those with mild illness can get out of bed and move around lightly, but should not feel tired. They should not do too much housework. When the condition stabilizes, they should participate in some beneficial activities and work to adjust their life interests, but they should not overwork or take long-term sick leave.

Dietary precautions:

Smoking and drinking can make patients excited, agitated, and even irritable, and their heart rate will increase, which will aggravate the condition. They need to quit smoking and drinking. Coffee, strong tea and other stimulating foods are prohibited to reduce the patient's excessive excitement as much as possible. Hyperthyroidism patients have an increased basal metabolic rate and increased energy consumption. Their diet should be high in calories, high in vitamins, and sufficient in protein and sugar starch. Protein should generally not be less than 1.5g per kilogram of body weight per day, and should be mainly liver, fish, eggs, poultry and soy products. Eat more fresh vegetables, fruits, and calcium-rich foods such as milk, fish and shrimp to make up for the calcium deficiency caused by hyperthyroidism. Try to eat less or no iodine-containing foods, such as kelp and seaweed. Iodine-containing foods are not conducive to the improvement of hyperthyroidism symptoms.
