Thyroid nodules are a common thyroid disease with an increasing incidence in recent years. Thyroid nodules are a common thyroid disease that many people find during a physical examination. For most patients with thyroid nodules, there is no need to worry too much, because most nodules are benign, but there are also a small number of nodules that will become malignant, and it is very important to timely regulate and control thyroid nodules.
In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, thyroid nodules belong to the category of "gall tumor", and traditional Chinese medicine believes that the occurrence of gall tumor is related to the liver, spleen and heart, so the conditioning and alleviation of thyroid nodules need to start from many aspects, including diet conditioning, traditional Chinese medicine conditioning, massage health care and emotional care.

Traditional Chinese medicine conditioning is also one of the important ways to relieve thyroid nodules. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the onset of thyroid nodules is related to the liver, spleen and heart, so it is necessary to choose suitable Chinese medicine for conditioning according to different syndrome types. For patients with thyroid nodules with qi stagnation and phlegm coagulation, they can choose traditional Chinese medicine that soothes the liver and regulates qi, dissolves phlegm and disperses knots, such as Bupleurum chinensis, Xiangfu, Qingpi, Tangerine peel, Banxia, etc.; For patients with thyroid nodules with blood stasis and phlegm coagulation, traditional Chinese medicine can be selected to promote blood circulation and dispel stasis, dissolve phlegm and disperse condensation, such as peach kernel, safflower, red peony, Chuanxiong, angelica, etc.; For patients with thyroid nodules with spleen deficiency and phlegm coagulation, traditional Chinese medicine can be selected to strengthen the spleen and dissolve phlegm, disperse knots and eliminate galls, such as Codonopsis, Atractylodes, Poria cocos, tangerine peel, etc.
