My aunt is 43 years old and has been diagnosed with a thyroid nodule. Is surgery the only way to treat it? I was considering consulting a homeopath, can homeopathy help cure the nodule without surgery? Are there any naturopathy treatments or home remedies that can help remove it?

Thyroid nodules are common and are not always dangerous. Surgery is not always needed unless the nodule is cancerous, large, or causing symptoms like difficulty swallowing. Most nodules are managed by monitoring with regular scans. Homeopathy or naturopathy does not have proven evidence to shrink thyroid nodules. It is best to consult an endocrinologist for guidance. You can book a Thyroid Profile and FNAC (needle test) of the nodule to check its nature before deciding treatment.

My son thyroid test report shows a value of 5.50. The doctor says he is suffering from thyroid issues. Could you please clarify whether this result indicates a positive or negative thyroid condition?

I just received my TSH blood test report, and the result is less than 0.05 mIU/L. Could you please advise whether this is dangerous or if it is normally treatable?
