marusya05 [52]

Based on the clinical findings nurse suspects possible thyroid dysfunction associated with cold intolerance.

Significance of hypothyroidism:

Hypothyroidism, also known as underactive thyroid, occurs when your thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones to fulfil your body's requirements.

  • The thyroid gland is a tiny, butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of your neck.
  • It produces hormones that regulate how the body utilizes energy. These hormones touch almost every organ in your body and regulate many of its most vital processes.
  • They, for example, have an impact on your respiration, heart rate, weight, digestion, and mood.
  • Many of your body's processes slow down when you don't have enough thyroid hormones. However, there are therapies available.

When babies suffer from hypothyroidism, the following issues may arise:

  • Yellowing of the skin and eye whites (jaundice).
  • This usually happens when a baby's liver is unable to metabolize bilirubin, which is produced when the body recycles old or damaged red blood cells.
  • A big tongue that sticks out.
  • Breathing is difficult.
  • Crying out loud.
  • A hernia of the umbilicus.
