What Are Hyperparathyroidism Symptoms?

Hyperparathyroidism occurs when overactive parathyroid glands produce excess parathyroid hormone (PTH), often due to a benign adenoma, hyperplasia, or genetic conditions. Symptoms include persistent fatigue, bone or joint pain, kidney stones, frequent urination, or depression. Dr. Naveed Basheeth uses advanced diagnostics, such as blood tests for calcium and PTH levels, ultrasound, or sestamibi scans, to identify the cause and deliver tailored treatments for optimal symptom management.

Is Hyperparathyroidism Treatment the Right Option for Me?

Treatment is suitable for those with symptomatic or severe hyperparathyroidism. You may benefit if you experience:

  • Chronic fatigue or muscle weakness
  • Bone or joint pain
  • Kidney stones or urinary issues
  • Mood changes, anxiety, or depression
  • Elevated calcium or PTH levels
  • Realistic expectations for treatment outcomes

How Is Hyperparathyroidism Treatment Different From Other ENT Services?

Hyperparathyroidism treatment uniquely addresses overactive parathyroid glands causing elevated calcium levels, distinct from broader ENT specialties managing ear, nasal, or sinus disorders. It integrates advanced diagnostic techniques, such as sestamibi scans, 4D-CT imaging, or precise blood tests for calcium and PTH, with targeted therapies like medication or minimally invasive parathyroidectomy. This specialized approach restores hormonal balance, alleviates symptoms like fatigue and bone pain, and ensures rapid recovery with minimal complications.

Does Recovery After Hyperparathyroidism Treatment Take Long?

Recovery from hyperparathyroidism treatment varies by approach; non-surgical methods, such as medication, typically stabilize symptoms within a few weeks, while minimally invasive parathyroidectomy results in mild, temporary discomfort, like neck soreness or swelling, resolving within 1–2 weeks. Most patients resume normal activities within 2–3 weeks, supported by Dr. Basheeth’s individualized aftercare plans, which prioritize comfort, promote efficient healing, and ensure sustained health through ongoing monitoring.
