Recently encountered a male patient, self-reported that usually very healthy, colds are rare, but recently coughed for a month, can not stand the urging of family members to come to see the doctor, but CT did, the diagnosis is lung cancer. Patients and family members can't figure it out, obviously they can eat, drink and sleep normally, just because of cough to see the doctor, a check is actually lung cancer.
In life, we often encounter this situation, some people have no major problems, and rarely go to the hospital, but suddenly get sick, go to the hospital for examination, often quite serious diseases. On the contrary, some people who are often sick, people who run to the hospital from time to time, rarely suffer from serious illness. Why?
People who are in good health subjectively think that they are very healthy, what small problems will pass by, and as a result, small diseases will drag into major diseases, and when they can't drag them over, they will go to the hospital for treatment, and the results may already be very serious. For example, acute pancreatitis, patients often have symptoms of abdominal pain after drinking and eating, patients may think that they have eaten, stomach pain, boiling will pass, when the pain is unbearable to go to the hospital, a check, only to know that the situation is much more serious than imagined.
On the other hand, people who are often sick will always pay attention to their own changes, and when they feel uncomfortable, they will go to the hospital for treatment, so many of these people may have chronic diseases, but few fatal diseases. For example, patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), they will standardize their medication, review it regularly, keep warm at all times, and of course, they will not smoke. When they begin to have symptoms of cough, asthma, and difficulty breathing, they will see a doctor in time, which can be well controlled and treated in the early stage of the development of the disease, so as to avoid small diseases dragging into major diseases. In addition, people with minor illnesses also pay more attention to the maintenance of the body: in addition to regular examinations, they will also choose a healthy diet with low salt and low fat, quit smoking and alcohol, and also exercise moderately to improve immunity.
Although the body can not speak, but when the place is uncomfortable, it is actually the body telling the owner, I need maintenance, we must not be dismissive, we should pay attention to the body's wordless protest.
