Hyperthyroidism (hyperparathyroidism)

The parathyroid glands lie in the neck, right next to the thyroid gland – as the name suggests. They belong to the endocrine hormone-forming organs, i.e. they release substances into the bloodstream. Mainly the hormones of the parathyroid glands (parathyroid hormones) control the production of calcium in the body.

Calcium is a mineral that is particularly important in the body for If the parathyroid glands are overactive, too much of the calcium regulating hormone is released, which leads to increased calcium production. Too much calcium in the blood ultimately leads to deposits in the body, such as kidney and gallstones. The hormone also causes calcium to be released from the bones, making them unstable and leading to bone and joint pain.Other symptoms of parathyroid hyperthyroidism include muscle weakness, which occurs particularly in the thighs.

Overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism)

The thyroid gland lies in the neck below the larynx. Among other things, hormones produced by it play an important role in all processes of the entire energy metabolism, they influence the cardiovascular system and the gastrointestinal tract – thus influencing the most vital functions in the body. When the thyroid gland is overactive, all these important metabolic systems are excessively stimulated by increased hormone release.

The symptoms are manifold and range from The cell build-up and breakdown of different body structures is disrupted by the excessive hormone release. The result is painful bones, joints and muscles throughout the body. Appropriately, you might also be interested in these articles, because they are also about aching muscles and joints:
