About Goiter

Goiter is a swelling of the thyroid gland in the neck. In "goiter meaning in Urdu," it refers to a visible lump in the throat. This lump may grow slowly and be painless. Some goiters cause coughing or a tight feeling in the throat.

The thyroid controls many body functions. A goiter may form when it grows too much. It can happen with too much or too little thyroid hormone. Most goiters are harmless. But some may be linked to thyroid disease.

Goiter is more common in women and older adults. In many cases, it can be managed with medicine or surgery.
