What Is Parathyroid Disease?

The parathyroid glands are located in the neck near the thyroid gland. They produce parathyroid hormone (PTH) to help control blood calcium levels.

If you have parathyroid disease, your PTH levels may be too high or too low. This can cause problems with your bones and other organs.

Primary hyperparathyroidism is caused by abnormal functioning parathyroid glands that produve excessive amounts of PTH resulting in high serum calcium levels. Hypoparathyroidism result from hypoactive parathyroid glands that result in low calcium levels causing debilitating symptoms.

Symptoms Of Parathyroid Disease

There are a number of symptoms of parathyroid disease, and they can vary depending on the severity of the condition. However, some of the most common symptoms include:

• -Nausea and vomiting
• -Abdominal pain
• -Weakness or fatigue
• -Confusion
• -Loss of appetite
• -Pale skin and fingernails

If you notice any of these symptoms, it’s important to see a doctor as soon as possible. If left untreated, parathyroid disease can lead to serious health complications, such as osteoporosis, kidney stones or kidney failure.

How Is Parathyroid Disease Treated?

Hyperparathyroidism is generally treated with parathyroidectomy where the abnormal parathyroid gland(s) is/are identified and removed. If surgery cannot be done, which can be due to several reasons, medications can be given to manage the condition. Hypoparathyroidism is managed by use of calcium and vitamin D supplements to maintain calcium levels in desired range in blood and regular monitoring to prevent complications.
