🦋 Thyroid Gland 🦋
Studying on the materials of previous course in Rome to consolidate my understanding on the teaching on thyroid gland as i have a few patients who have 💥hormonal imbalance 💥symptoms with assessment findings (listening & mobility tests) led me to thyroid gland🦋.
The thyroid gland has a rich blood supply from the Superior Thyroid Artery which comes from External Carotid Artery and Inferior Thyroid Artery which comes from Subclavian Artery. As a Visceral Manipulation ✨👐🏼✨👐🏼therapist, we are taught to treat the vascular system and visco-elasticity of the thyroid gland. Good blood circulation is particularly important for the thyroid gland because, “the normal rate of blood flow through the gland is around 2️⃣ times that of the kidney (at 3 mL/min/g or 30-60 mL/min through the gland), but in disorders involving growth of the thyroid tissue, such as diffuse toxic goitre, it may reach 1L/min in total” (quoted from 📖 The Endocrine System (2nd Ed) by Joy Hinson 🕵🏼♂️BSc PhD DSc et al.) We need to ensure glandular organs have good blood ♨️circulation and that the thyroid gland has to be mobile on trachea, oseophagus and surrounding fascial layers.
It is not easy to work on vascular system with good effect, but as Jean Pierre said, “we should not allow ourselves to miss something important on our patients without treating it”. He also taught us as a therapist, “Our responsibility is to help the body with its dysfunctions in a way that improves its compensatory & adaptive mechanisms. We think it is rather suspect, if a therapist talks about “Healing”. What matters most ✨ is “Listening - ALWAYS! Relieve - maybe! Healing - as God wills!” .

甲狀腺問題會造成頭暈嗎?
有一個女性患者
到腦部的血管並沒有阻塞
但是因為甲狀腺結節的血流太強
把到腦部的血流吸了
一部分過去甲狀腺
反而到腦部的血流變少
所以患者有頭暈的症狀

偶爾量一下兩邊血壓
量血壓時,我們習慣量左邊,因為右手操作血壓計較方便。而且我們會假設兩邊的血壓是一樣的,所以量那一邊都可以。今天介紹一個兩邊手臂收缩壓會差到20~50 mmHg的病-鎖骨下動脈狹窄。
鎖骨下動脈負責供應我們手臂的血流,所以當它發生狹窄,患側的手臂的血流會不足,患側血壓自然就會降低,如果這時量兩邊血壓就會發現兩邊血壓差很多的情況。當這狹窄愈來愈厲害,為了提供足夠的血流給手臂,就會去偷對側鎖骨下動脈供的血流,這種現象我們稱之為鎖骨下動脈血流偷竊 (subclavian steal)。這個現象發現距今已有190年,是由愛爾蘭/都柏林,三一學院,外科兼解剖學家 Robert Harrison在1829年所提出。但一直到1960年才由 L. Contorni 藉由血管攝影的檢查讓人們親眼見證這種偷竊行為,套一句現代的話就是:抓到現行犯。
過去的西方國家,病人常是第一個被整脊醫師(類似台灣的接骨師)所診斷,因為整脊時一直轉動病人大手臂,病人有頭暈、眼花、跌倒、或意識不清發生,而懷疑有此病。台灣沒有整脊醫師,但卻有許多按摩院,或許您去按摩時,自己可以小心注意一下。(終於找到一個去做泰式按摩的正當理由!)
有懷疑的病人可以測兩手臂血壓(收縮壓兩邊可以差到20~50 mmHg),然後在血壓較低側,用血壓加壓帶壓迫3分鐘,然後突然放開,看有沒有頭暈現象產生。當然較可靠的方式是去求診做頸部超音波檢查,最後確診還是得做血管攝影,見證竊流現象,及鎖下動脈狹窄部位及程度。
人是習慣的動物,天天做一樣的事較安心,也較不費心。但偶爾還是改變一下習慣,吃不一樣的菜,認識不一樣的朋友,走不一樣的路回家,以及測一下兩邊血壓!
