Swelling in the neck, accompanied by hand tremors, heart palpitations, and insomnia, may signal more than just temporary discomfort—it could indicate hyperthyroidism.
While conventional medicine typically relies on medications or surgery, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) offers a gentle, noninvasive alternative: ear acupressure. This centuries-old technique may help soothe symptoms, regulate hormones, and restore balance naturally.
Understanding Hyperthyroidism
Hyperthyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone, speeding up the body’s metabolism and causing symptoms such as a racing heart, hand tremors, and sleep difficulties. In the United States, about one in every 100 people aged 12 or older is affected, with women and older adults facing a higher risk.
