First thing that needs to be done is the use of general anesthesia as the attempt to relieve the pain and to make the patient asleep. Moreover, in some thyroid surgeries, the surgeon use local anesthesia in which the pain free is just applied in the local area around the red lane. This will cause the patient not to sleep but the patient will not feel the pain. So, surgery with local anesthesia will keep the patient awake while the surgeon works on the surgery in certain area. For thyroid removal, local anesthesia will be applied in the red lane area and the patient will be kept awake while the process of surgery runs. After the use of the pain free, the surgeon will start to work on the removal of the thyroid in which the surgeon cut the middle of the neck for about 3 to 4 inches above the thyroid gland. The thyroid removal can be done in all part of the thyroid or just part of the thyroid according to the case that the patient has. When the thyroid is opened, the surgeon will remove the thyroid gland that is needed to be removed. In addition, for small surgery, surgeon will just cut in 2 inches using smaller cutter for surgery. It needs to be considered that the surgeon can not make failure of cutting or even damage blood vessels or nerves in the neck because it will cause another health problem. Furthermore, in the surgery, there must be blood that comes out from the vein and surgeon can put small tube in the area. The tube can be removed after 1 or 2 days after the surgery. After the thyroid gland is removed, the surgeon will cover the cut area by stitching it.
