Common Symptoms Of Thyroid Disorders You Need To Know

Eye bulging or protrusion

Most cases of hyperthyroidism arise from an underlying autoimmune disorder known as Graves’ disease.

The inflammation pushes the eyeball s forward in their sockets, and makes it look like a person is staring, hence the term “Graves’ stare.”
