Breast & Thyroid
Assessment and surgical treatment for breast lumps, thyroid nodules, and other neck and endocrine conditions, combining careful diagnosis with minimally invasive techniques.
Understanding Breast & Thyroid Care
Breast and thyroid conditions range from benign lumps and nodules to conditions that need closer evaluation. Careful diagnosis with imaging and, where needed, biopsy guides whether monitoring, medication, or surgery is the right next step.
Conditions We Treat
Breast Lump
A palpable lump in the breast that requires evaluation to determine whether it is benign or needs further treatment.
- A new lump is felt in the breast
- Lump is growing or changing in size
- Skin or nipple changes are noticed
Fibroadenoma
A common benign breast lump, most frequent in younger women.
- A firm, movable lump is felt
- Lump has been present for several weeks
- You would like the lump evaluated or removed
Thyroid Nodule
A lump within the thyroid gland that is usually benign but needs evaluation.
- A lump or swelling is felt in the neck
- Difficulty swallowing or breathing develops
- Voice changes accompany the swelling
Goitre
An enlarged thyroid gland causing visible neck swelling.
- Visible swelling at the front of the neck
- Tightness or pressure in the throat
- Swelling is gradually increasing
Hyperthyroidism / Hypothyroidism
Overactive or underactive thyroid function affecting metabolism and energy levels.
- Unexplained weight change
- Persistent fatigue or restlessness
- Irregular heartbeat or heat/cold intolerance
Neck Lump
A swelling in the neck that may originate from lymph nodes, salivary glands, or other structures.
- A lump in the neck persists beyond 2–3 weeks
- Lump is firm, painless, or growing
- Swelling is accompanied by weight loss or fever
Recovery & Rehabilitation
From evaluation to a confirmed diagnosis and treatment, care progresses through clear stages.
Assessment
Evaluate the Lump
Clinical examination, ultrasound, and biopsy where needed determine whether a lump or nodule is benign or requires treatment.
Treatment
Monitor or Treat
Many findings are monitored safely; surgery is planned when a lump is suspicious, symptomatic, or enlarging.
Recovery
Minimally Invasive Recovery
Where surgery is needed, small-incision techniques support quicker healing and minimal scarring.
Follow-up
Ongoing Monitoring
Periodic review and, where relevant, hormone level checks ensure long-term breast and thyroid health.
Breast & Thyroid questions
Get answers about breast lumps, thyroid nodules, and treatment options.
No, most breast lumps are benign, such as fibroadenomas or cysts. However, any new or changing lump should be evaluated promptly to confirm the diagnosis.
You may benefit from a breast or thyroid review if:
- A new lump is felt in the breast or neck
- A lump is growing or changing shape
- Swallowing or breathing feels affected
- Unexplained weight or energy changes occur
- You want a lump formally evaluated
Careful evaluation guides every decision
Most breast and thyroid findings are benign and safely monitored. Surgery is recommended only when evaluation shows it is the right next step.
