Hyperparathyroidism
Hyperparathyroidism is a condition where the parathyroid glands produce excess parathyroid hormone (PTH), often leading to elevated calcium levels in the blood. Symptoms may include bone pain, kidney stones, and fatigue. Treatment options vary, including monitoring, medication, or surgery to remove the overactive parathyroid glands. Hyperparathyroidism requires careful management.
