The majority of patients with [disease name] are asymptomatic.
The hallmark of Riedel's thyroiditis is hard and fixed thyroid mass. A positive history of other autoimmune diseases and the use of certain medications is suggestive of Riedel's thyroiditis. The most common symptoms of Riedel's thyroiditis include hard and fixed neck mass, painless goiter, dysphagia, dyspnea, and hoarseness. Less common symptoms of Riedel's thyroiditis include muscular cramps, paresthesias, fatigue, and dry skin.
