At that moment, a young man walked in.
"Mom? Are you not done yet?"
The woman turned her head to glance at her son and said, "The doctor here says it's not a lung disease. It might be the thyroid gland pressing on a nerve that's causing the dry cough."
Hearing his mother's words, the young man was taken aback and looked at the doctor, "Doctor... what's the situation? The thyroid can cause a dry cough?"
Chen Cang, upon hearing this, nodded his head, "Yes, I've just performed a palpation of your mother's thyroid gland. I can confirm that both sides are enlarged and there are nodules as well. To determine the exact situation, we'll need to do an ultrasound scan."
Hearing Chen Cang's words, the young man was momentarily stunned, "Then please write a referral for us."
Chen Cang nodded and wrote a referral for a thyroid ultrasound.
