Thyroid disease is a significant global health concern with variable incidence rates depending on the type of thyroid condition and the geographical region being considered. Thyroid disease is influenced by factors including diet, genetics and access to healthcare. Public health awareness efforts are needed to address and manage these conditions effectively.

Undiagnosed Thyroid Disease

Undiagnosed thyroid disease can have a profound adverse effect on a number of health issues. If thyroid disease is suspected, it's important to seek medical evaluation and diagnosis. Early detection and treatment can help reduce the risk of long-term complications.

Multidisciplinary Awareness and Diagnosis

Thyroid diseases are common and frequently recognizable by patients and clinicians who know what to look for. Patient education is helpful; however, multidiscipline clinical awareness and cooperation are essential for effective detection, diagnosis, treatment, and management.
