Thyroid – a small organ located in the lower part of the neck, resembling a butterfly in shape, can cause very serious health problems. The thyroid controls metabolism and therefore affects the condition of every organ. Its improper functioning disrupts the work of the entire body.
ALARM SIGNALS

Many patients seek medical attention only when disturbing symptoms appear. However, some illnesses develop painlessly and without any obvious warning signs. This is why the nationwide program "My Health" was created, which allows adults to assess their health and detect risk factors at an early stage.
In this episode of WHAT YOUR DOCTOR SAYS, Dariusz Litera talks with Dr. Sebastian Floryn, an ophthalmology specialist, about symptoms that shouldn't be ignored. The expert explains when you should urgently seek medical attention, why time matters in some cases, and what systemic diseases can manifest through eye symptoms.
