The movie "Send You a Little Red Flower", which was released on the last day of 2020, threw out the question at the beginning of the film: If you were a cancer patient, how would you live?
Many "normal people" may not be able to understand or make this assumption.
And the only wish of the hero and heroine of this movie is to be a "normal person".
The film is tear-jerking, and the classic line in the play: Little Red Flower, reward you for being proactive for the first time in your life. It has also become the hope of many people.
Just like Dr. Tao Yong's evaluation of "Send You a Little Red Flower":
Believe in beauty in suffering, believe that the world is worthwhile.
Looking at domestic and foreign films in recent years, anti-cancer films can be described as masterpieces.
Get Out! With a heart-warming and inspirational plot, "Tumor Jun" has moved many people to tears;
"I Am Not a Medicine God" found a balance between realistic care and commercial considerations, achieving a good record of 3.1 billion at the box office;
"Cancer Fighting Me", "The Fault in the Stars", "Me and Earl and the Girl Who Will Die" three foreign films focus on teenagers with cancer, and are praised by fans for their true details, sincere emotions and sincere actors.
These movies have brought more "cancer patients" into the public eye, and in real life, many superstars have "fallen" because of this.
On May 31, 2012, Lin Junde, a well-known expert in the field of explosive mechanics and nuclear test engineering in China, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and a researcher at a base of assembly assembly, died of cholangiocarcinoma.
On September 15, 2017, Nan Rendong, the father of "China's Heavenly Eye", died of lung cancer.
On July 24, 2020, Zheng Shouren, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, former member of the party group and chief engineer of the Jiang Shui Conservancy Commission of the Ministry of Water Resources, died of liver cancer.

Tumors have now become a serious threat to human health. The latest data in 2020 show that the number of new cases of malignant tumors in China has reached 3.929 million per year, and the number of deaths has reached 2.338 million.
Tumors include benign tumors and malignant tumors, the latter is often referred to as "cancer".
Malignant tumors usually grow faster, and have the nature of aggressiveness and distant spread and metastasis, which can cause serious harm to the human body. If it is not controlled in time and effectively, it may lead to death, and it is precisely because of this that people will always "talk about cancer discoloration" and be afraid of cancer.
The main reason why cancer is difficult to deal with is that it is found late. The difficulty of finding tumors does not mean that it is impossible to detect them early, but many people are usually reluctant to understand the knowledge of tumor prevention.
In fact, many tumor invasion timing body has early alarm signals, as long as we increase vigilance in time to find these signals will be early detection of tumors.
This year's April 15-21 is the 27th National Cancer Prevention and Control Publicity Week, with the theme of "Lighting up the road to anti-cancer and helping healthy China".
Let's take a look at this "health killer" together.
Cancer is a chronic disease, 01 can be prevented and sieve and treated
The occurrence of cancer is a long-term, chronic, multi-stage process. It usually takes 10 to 20 years or even longer to evolve from normal cells to cancer cells and then form tumors that endanger human health.
The World Health Organization proposes that one-third of cancers can be completely prevented; one-third of cancers can be cured through early detection; and one-third of cancers can use existing medical measures to prolong life, alleviate pain, and improve quality of life.
International advanced experience shows that the adoption of active prevention (such as health education, tobacco control and alcohol control, early screening, etc.) and standardized treatment measures have a significant effect on reducing the incidence and death of cancer. In some areas of China where the integrated cancer prevention and treatment strategy was implemented earlier, cancer incidence and mortality rates have shown a downward trend.
02
Exercise prevents cancer
Exercise can indeed prevent cancer, and the immune function of regular exercisers is better, which is the first line of defense against cancer. But it should be reminded that the exercise referred to here is not strenuous exercise, but long-term, constant aerobic exercise.
Exercise can increase immune cells, and the number of immune cells in the human body can rise with the increase of exercise, so that cancer cells are destroyed at the beginning of formation. Conversely, sedentary people are prone to cancer due to the lack of sufficient immune cells.
Exercise itself will also stimulate the secretion of certain hormones in the body, accelerate the speed of bone marrow production of white blood cells, increase the ability to engulf cells, and a small number of cancer cells appear in the body, which will soon be annihilated by a large number of white blood cells.
Exercise can also improve people's emotions, exercise when the brain will produce substances that can cause human body and mind pleasure, can eliminate sorrow and troubles, inhibit the erosion of bad emotions.
Exercise can exercise people's will, enhance confidence and perseverance to defeat cancer, and is crucial to defeating many diseases.
03
The early alarm signal of the tumor is "five-word recipe": blood, lump, pain, burning, and reduction
（1）
Blood (bleeding)
In addition to normal menstruation in women, any unexplained bleeding in any organ of the human body and its inability to heal may be an early warning sign of the tumor. If the nosebleed is unexplained, to exclude transient epistaxis caused by trauma, external force, dry weather or high blood pressure, it may be nasopharyngeal carcinoma, blood diseases and other tumors;
Coughing up blood, blood in sputum, and excluding temporary bleeding due to dry weather, bleeding gums, or overwork, may be a manifestation of lung cancer.
Blood in the urine, especially painless hematuria, with lumbar discomfort, possibly bladder cancer, kidney cancer;
Blood in the stool, if accompanied by a change in bowel habits, tenesmus and severe weight (abdominal pain and distress, frequent desire to defecate, relapse, stool out of discomfort), may be an early manifestation of colorectal cancer;
Bloody discharge from the nipples of women, possibly breast cancer or breast ductal tumors;
After menopause, vaginal bleeding is found, which may be a manifestation of cervical cancer.
（2）
Lumps (abnormal lumps)
Tumors, especially solid tumors, are ugly in appearance and are often one or more irregular lumps.
Superficial parts of the body, there are long-lasting or rapidly enlarged masses in a short period of time, especially accompanied by itching, ulceration, exudation, etc.;
Irregular lumps are found in the breast, bilateral asymmetry, especially the appearance of "orange peel-like" changes, most likely breast cancer;
If the thyroid gland finds a lump, suddenly can't make a sound or the voice suddenly becomes hoarse, in addition to seeing the endocrinology department, you must also go to the oncology department to see it, so as to avoid thyroid cancer, laryngeal cancer and other tumors missed.
（3）
Pain (pain)
Long-term and persistently aggravated pain may be an early sign of the tumor.
Headache, progressively exacerbated, with nausea, vomiting (ejection vomiting is more critical), blurred vision, which may be a manifestation of a brain tumor or caused by tumors such as lung cancer flowing into the brain (brain metastases). In the above symptoms, some patients often just go to the neurology department for medical treatment, but be sure to consult the oncology department after seeing the neurology department to check whether there is a brain tumor, so as not to delay the treatment time.
Neck pain, accompanied by a feeling of pressure, a feeling of contraction, stiffness, facial edema, which may be caused by tumor invasion oppressing the upper vena cava of the human body, causing obstruction of blood return;
Pain in the back of the sternum, burning sensation, and difficulty in the lower pharynx may be manifestations of esophageal and cardia cancer and stomach cancer.
（4）
Fever (fever)
Fever time more than one week, especially more than ten days, must consider diseases other than colds, in addition to concomitant lung infections, etc., the suspicion of tumors can not be ruled out.
If the fever persists, especially long-term low-grade fever, accompanied by weight loss, night sweats (sweating after falling asleep at night), etc., children should be wary of hematologic tumors such as leukemia (well-known late child star Deng Minghe, leukemia is found in this way), adults should rule out the possibility of lymphoma, liver cancer, kidney cancer and other tumors.
（5）
Loss (weight loss)
Adults, especially young and middle-aged people, in the absence of deliberate weight loss, short-term weight loss for unknown reasons, and a progressive decline, after excluding hyperthyroidism, diabetes, tuberculosis and other diseases, it may be digestive tract tumors, kidney cancer, lymphoma and other tumors at work. Because tumors, the gluttonous guy, are competing with our bodies for nutrition, the food we eat is stolen by tumors.
If weight loss is accompanied by yellowing and pain in the skin color, it is necessary to actively check to rule out the possibility of tumors such as pancreatic cancer, the "king of cancer".
04
Anti-cancer physical examination is the most important way to detect cancer early
Professional anti-cancer physical examination can achieve early detection and early diagnosis of cancer, so as to achieve the purpose of early treatment, which is the most ideal way to prevent and treat cancer at present, and it is also the method with the least cost, the least pain and the most worth advocating.
Anti-cancer physical examination, different from the general health examination, specifically refers to the oncology expert combined with the physical examiner's own situation and individual needs, to do the corresponding part of the anti-cancer examination.
Such as anti-lung cancer physical examination, physical examination pay attention to lung CT examination; suspected stomach cancer or patients with a family history of high-risk gastric cancer, can focus on gastroscopy; digital examination is a simple way to investigate rectal cancer, long-term blood in the stool or abnormal stool habits must be checked.
Pay attention to "cancer from the mouth", 05 pay attention to food safety
Many cancers are related to nutritional factors, including calorie intake in the diet, excessive fat, and insufficient certain nutrients in food, etc. Cancers that belong to this category include stomach cancer, rectal cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, uterine cancer and breast cancer.
A high-fat diet can increase the incidence of colon, breast, and prostate cancer. Data show that large amounts of fat increase estrogen synthesis in women and increase the risk of hormone-dependent cancers (such as breast cancer). Long-term excess intake of protein also increases the risk of cancer. Insufficient intake of zinc, calcium, selenium, molybdenum, iodine, etc. is also susceptible to cancer.
Because the meat is grilled directly at high temperatures, the decomposed fat is dripped on the charcoal fire, and the product of the food fat coking process combines with the protein in the meat to produce a carcinogen called benzopyrene, which attaches to the surface of the food. Often eat such barbecue foods contaminated with benzopyrene, carcinogens will accumulate in the body, there is a risk of inducing stomach cancer and bowel cancer.
There is good evidence that alcoholic beverages are the cause of oral, pharyngeal, laryngeal, esophageal and breast cancers , including premenopausal and postmenopausal . At the same time, there is sufficient evidence that alcoholic beverages are the cause of colon/rectal cancer in men.
Note: If you are unwell, please go to a regular hospital in time to avoid delaying your condition.
Starting today,
Let's keep in mind the key points of anti-"tumor",
Have a healthy body!
