Dubai, United Arab Emirates (CNN) — Thyroid cancer usually occurs at an earlier age compared to other types of cancers suffered by adults, according to the official account of the Qatari Ministry of Public Health, in a tweet via “Twitter”.
But this disease is often treatable when diagnosed early.
Symptoms of thyroid cancer may include:
- A lump in the front of the neck
- Difficulty speaking and swallowing
- Feeling pain in the throat or neck
According to the official website of the Governmental Hamad Medical Corporation, thyroid cancer occurs when abnormal cells grow inside the gland, and lead to a loss of control of thyroid functions.
Like other cancers, the way to prevent thyroid cancer begins with healthy habits, such as maintaining a healthy weight and getting regular physical activity.
Although the causes of thyroid cancer are still not fully understood, there are many factors that may make a person more susceptible to developing it.
These factors include radiation exposure, family history that indicates the presence of cases of gland diseases, or thyroid cancer, in addition to some genetic conditions, such as the presence of cases of medullary thyroid cancer that spreads through families.
