We treated a 42-year-old female with subacute thyroiditis. She suffered from swallowing pain, general fatigue and slight fever. Though an increase in the erythrocyte sediment ratio was noted, the diagnosis was difficult to obtain.
This short report describes the problem of the diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis and the rapid effect of corticosteroid hormone therapy. We believe that the history and the physical findings of the painful goiter as well as the inflammatory signs led us to the diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis.
