Because You're like bored now. voice-verified

Well card. voice-verified

So when you're an endocrinologist, you you you you see all the the weird and wonderful stuff because hormones do so many things, but then you have to specialise in one c particular area and I just I just didn't like the i idea of doing one particular thing forever. voice-verified

Problems with your thyroid. voice-verified

So lumps in the neck for me is one of those red flag medical conditions. voice-verified

So if you've got an unexplained lump anywhere in your neck, you must get it checked out. voice-verified

If it's in the centre of your neck, just where a Blokes Adams apple is, and it moves with kind of swallowing, then it's probably your thyroid, but you still need to get it checked. voice-verified

Um if it's anywhere else in the neck, particularly glands, you voice-verified

You know, the reason we we need to see them and investigate them, if they've been there for three weeks or more for sure, or if they're firm rubbery or more than two centimeters, um is the risk of leukemias, lymphomas. voice-verified

So that's the risk. voice-verified

That's why we want to see it. voice-verified

But any neck lump we we need to see. voice-verified

Now, if we suspect it's your thyroid, the the the way we'll examine you is go round the back of you. voice-verified

So you'll be sitting in a chair, we'll go round the back of you and we'll put both hands on the front of your neck, so our fingertips on both hands will be feeling your thyroid gland, right just where my add end is at police. voice-verified

You can feel an enlarged one, you can't feel a normal one. voice-verified

And then we'll ask you to swallow and we'll see whether that sw that swelling or lump goes up and down with the swallow, in which case it probably is your thyroid gland. voice-verified

Then we'll feel so voice-verified

Swollen thyroid glands could be something called a goiter. voice-verified

The Porsche word for a swollen uh uh um thyroid gland is a goita. voice-verified

Uh sounds like something delicious to get in a restaurant. voice-verified
