Thyroid cancer begins in the thyroid, the small, butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your neck. This gland regulates your body’s metabolism, heart rate, and body temperature. When its cells turn cancerous, they can grow silently and spread, often without early symptoms.

    Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers.

    Is every neck lump a sign of thyroid cancer?

    Not always, but a firm, painless lump that doesn’t heal should be evaluated by a specialist.

    Can thyroid cancer be inherited?

    Yes, especially medullary thyroid cancer, which may be linked to genetic mutations passed through families.

    How is it diagnosed?

    Through ultrasound, fine-needle aspiration biopsy, thyroid blood tests, and imaging scans like CT or MRI.

    What's the recovery rate?

    Papillary and follicular cancers have over 95% survival when detected early and treated properly.
