1. How to solve neck swelling?

There is a feeling of stuffiness and slight pain on both sides of the base of the neck. This situation is usually caused by cervical spondylosis and strain. This kind of situation is usually checked by filming. In addition, there are

Diseases of the throat and tonsils can cause it. However, it is still recommended to go to the hospital for further examination, and a CT scan can be done if necessary.

You can take some Neck Recovery Medicine, and you should do head-raising exercises regularly to minimize the amplitude of lowering your head. You should move your neck regularly and exercise to strengthen the neck and back muscles, so as to reduce and prevent the occurrence of this disease.

Thyroid disease can be ruled out. The nodules in the thyroid gland are very small and do not require surgical treatment for the time being. The feeling of swelling and tightness in the neck has nothing to do with the mass in the thyroid gland. You can check the cervical spine to rule out cervical spondylosis. It is not a big problem and does not require any special treatment.

Solution:

For local symptomatic treatment, you can use Chinese patent medicines, such as Liyanling, Coral Grass lozenges, Baoan Powder, etc., and take it with tea: equal parts of Shuanghua, Ophiopogon japonicus, Sterculia lychnophora, and raw licorice, brew with boiling water and take frequently.

Thyroid diseases can cause swelling on both sides of the neck, but the swelling caused by the thyroid is pathological and can be seen from the appearance. Generally, swelling on both sides of the neck will not show any changes in the neck. Therefore, patients generally do not need to worry too much about the swelling on both sides of the neck. As long as they take proper care of themselves, drink plenty of water, and move their neck more, they will be fine.
