What Is Thyroid Cancer?
The thyroid gland is a small butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of your neck. Its function is to produce important hormones which regulate your metabolic rate and other body processes. Thyroid cancer is an occurrence of uncontrolled growth of the abnormal cells in the thyroid gland.
Even though most cases of thyroid cancer grow slowly, early detection and treatment are important for preventing the spread of the cancer to nearby lymph nodes or other organs.
