Your details are needed to comment on a plan of action. A large goitre that is unresponsive to medical management or restricts swallowing and breathing may require partial or complete removal of the thyroid gland. If the goitre is producing too much thyroid hormone, treatment with radioactive iodine, antithyroid medication, or surgery may be necessary.
