I've been dealing with low appetite, gum swelling, bleeding, bad breath, and very little saliva. My nose feels blocked, I have indigestion, piles, and this weird lump sensation in my throat. My hair's also turning grey early. All this started after my ear surgery in 2014. Blood tests showed high TSH levels, so I might have hypothyroidism. I read that drinking more water helps with mucus, but I'm not sure if I'm overdoing it. My lifestyle's pretty inactive what changes should I make and are there any medications that could help?

A post-radioiodine (RAI) whole body scan is used after surgery for papillary thyroid cancer to assess for any remaining thyroid tissue or cancer cells that may not be completely removed during surgery. The scan uses a small dose of radioactive iodine to detect these cells, and the results help determine the need for further RAI treatment
