When the thyroid gland suffers from a disease, it can be harmful to the body. Patients suffering from hyperthyroidism will have irritability, short temper, increased heart rate, and in severe cases, dry eyes, blurred vision, eye protrusion and other clinical symptoms.
When thyroid hormone decreases, patients may experience body fat, slow heart rate, mucous edema and other symptoms. Thyroid disease should be treated with early intervention once diagnosed.
