Plantar Facitis, Tennis Elbow, Exertional Compartment Syndrome. Having Thyroid Nodules, Are These Related?
I have had thyroid nodules for six years; been biposied twice and both were benign. My endo has done bloodwork and tells me my levels are normal. In the past year I have had plantar facitis, tennis elbow and rotator cuff tendonitis. Now, most recently, I have been diagnosed with exertional compartment syndrome. Could these things be linked to a thyroid problem even though the blood test are normal?
