Among the common cancers, stomach cancer ranks second.
However, China is a big country with stomach cancer, and the number of stomach cancers accounts for 40% of the world.......
Although the high incidence of stomach cancer is 50-80 years old, the number of young gastric cancer patients aged 19-35 in the past 5 years has doubled compared with 30 years ago.
The 23-year-old girl's stomach pain was not taken seriously for 2 weeks, and the result was that the confirmed stomach cancer could only be completely removed from the stomach
Recently, according to media reports: a 23-year-old girl from Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, usually busy at work, the pressure is very large, and as early as the middle of November last year, the little girl began to have stomach pain, which has lasted for two weeks.
But the little girl did not pay attention to it, until a few days ago after the meal suddenly appeared hematemesis symptoms, so she rushed to the hospital for examination, and the result was diagnosed as the advanced stage of stomach cancer.
Unfortunately, the tumor lesion is very large, and it has to be completely gastric resection, and the possibility of cancer recurrence and metastasis is relatively high.
Doctors remind: Many gastrointestinal cancers are developed from pre-stage lesions, such as polyps, ulcers, etc., therefore, in addition to maintaining a good lifestyle and eating habits every day, such patients also need regular screening.
Gastritis, carefully worsening into stomach cancer
Gastritis is a common benign stomach disease, but if it is not treated early, the probability of developing atrophic gastritis or even stomach cancer in the later stage will be relatively increased, and when symptoms of gastritis appear, treatment must be carried out as soon as possible.
What are the symptoms of gastritis?
1. Epigastric discomfort
If it is acute gastritis, the patient will have a sudden feeling of pain and swelling in the upper abdomen, and if it is chronic gastritis, the patient will recur a burning sensation in the middle and upper abdomen in daily life, or a dull pain and fullness.
Especially before the bowel movement, and after the body is cold, the mental pressure is excessive, and the alcohol consumption, this epigastric discomfort will be very obvious.
Second, discomfort after eating
After suffering from gastritis, patients will experience some discomfort in the stomach after each meal.
For example, patients obviously feel very hungry, but after eating a small amount of food, there will be early satiety, or in the process of eating, the abdomen will not only appear bloated, but also accompanied by nausea, heartburn and even vomiting.
Third, gastric emptying delay
Due to the inflammation of the stomach, resulting in a rapid decrease in the digestive function of the stomach, then after the patient eats, the food will stay in the stomach for a long time, it is difficult to be quickly digested, resulting in the patient's stomach becoming harder.
Food will be fermented in the stomach, and will produce a lot of gas, not only will make the patient have a very obvious feeling of bloating and pain, but also make the patient appear constantly belching, hiccups, or farting, bad breath and other phenomena.
Fourth, the appetite is reduced
Because the stomach is stimulated by inflammation, a series of non-specific indigestion symptoms have appeared, and patients will also have some stomach discomfort when eating, resulting in a slow decrease in the patient's appetite.
Because the function of the stomach to absorb nutrients in food will also be reduced, it will make the patient lack some nutrients in the body, resulting in gradual thinning of the body and some symptoms of anemia.
Fifth, regular acid reflux water
Most patients with gastritis often experience acid reflux.
After eating, because the food cannot be digested quickly, it will stay in the stomach, resulting in food retention in the stomach.
The stomach wall will secrete too much stomach acid, which is strongly acidic and will irritate the stomach, resulting in the phenomenon of acid reflux water. There are many patients who have symptoms of food reflux when they have frequent acid reflux.
This phenomenon is more pronounced when eating some sweets, or some indigestible meat foods.
Once these symptoms appear, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination and give corresponding treatment according to the cause of the disease and the degree of illness.
At the same time, patients also need to do a good job of dietary conditioning, mainly warm, nutritious, easy to absorb, easy to digest food, while low-salt diet, eat less pickled, smoked foods, and quit smoking and alcohol.
In addition, in addition to gastritis, patients with gastric polyps, gastric ulcers, or patients with intestinal metaplasia and intraepithelial neoplasia (i.e., atypical hyperplasia), do not forget to standardize treatment and review regularly, do not let these small problems eventually become a big problem.
