When it comes to cancer, many people think that cancer comes quietly, but it is not the case, and the reason why cancer occurs is not only related to genetic inheritance, but also closely related to bad habits in daily life, such as smoking and drinking.
And the treatment of cancer is very difficult, if you do not seize the early treatment opportunity, even life-threatening, but fortunately in recent years, people's health awareness has improved, everyone will do physical examination every year, so that early detection and early treatment can be achieved.
Especially for middle-aged and elderly people, do not neglect the following 4 types of cancer prevention screening during physical examination.
1. Gastroscopy
Clinical investigation data show that stomach cancer is one of the more common malignant diseases, second only to lung cancer, and the reason why many patients are entangled by gastric cancer is because they have had chronic gastritis, Helicobacter pylori infection and other diseases before.
Therefore, it is reminded that if you have suffered from stomach disease, you must not only treat it under the guidance of a doctor, but also have to go to the hospital regularly for gastroscopy, so that you can more clearly understand the health of the stomach and whether there is cell carcinogenesis.
2. CT examination of the lungs
Presumably, as we all know, lung cancer is the most common cancer in China, and its risk level far exceeds that of cancer of the digestive tract and bowel cancer.
According to relevant statistics, the incidence of lung cancer has exceeded 700,000 people, and people with lung cancer are not only affected by smoking factors, but also include long-term passive smoking of second-hand smoke and serious air pollution in the working environment.
Therefore, it is recommended that people who have the same experience do a lung CT examination at least once a year, so as to reduce the incidence of lung cancer.
3. Color super
Color ultrasound is also one of the examination items that can not be ignored in the physical examination process, especially the risk of breast cancer is higher for female friends with bad living habits, and only breast ultrasound examination can understand the health status of the breast.
In addition, breast cancer also has family genetic characteristics, so if someone in the family has suffered from breast cancer, the risk of cancer for themselves and their offspring is higher, and in this case, it is more necessary to go to the hospital regularly for breast ultrasound examination.
4. Colonoscopy
The purpose of colonoscopy is to understand whether there is colon cancer and rectal cancer, especially in people who have a family genetic history and habitual constipation, the probability of developing bowel cancer is higher than that of ordinary people, at this time it is necessary to regularly go to the hospital to do colonoscopy, once found to have polyp-like lesions, it should be surgically removed as soon as possible to prevent cancer.
Of course, in addition to the above 4 types of cancer screening need to be done regularly, as we continue to grow older, we should also pay more attention to the health of the reproductive system.
For example, for girls, they should insist on screening for cervical cancer for ovarian cancer, while for men, they need to know more about the health of the prostate area, so as to lay a good foundation for obtaining a long-lived physique.
All in all, with the continuous development of society, more and more people have a sense of health care, so they will have regular physical examinations.
However, it is necessary to remind everyone that in addition to the most basic B ultrasound and blood test, the physical examination should also do several types of anti-cancer screening mentioned above, including gastroscopy, colonoscopy, lung CT and color ultrasound. Especially those who have habits such as smoking and drinking, irregular meals, and staying up late, should pay more attention.
