In China, nearly 3 million people are ruthlessly killed by cancer every year, and everyone sees it as the embodiment of death!
However, many people actually have a misunderstanding of the death of cancer patients, and they blame the original cancer death on the treatment technology.
As everyone knows, in recent years, the clinical treatment technology in the mainland has been continuously improving, and there are constantly new anti-cancer methods and drugs coming out, and many cancerous changes can be effectively controlled, and even clinical cures can be achieved.
However, cancer has multiple characteristics such as infiltration, metastasis and spread, and the sooner treatment is controlled, the more likely it is to be cured.
Unfortunately, early detection of cancer is quite difficult, and most patients ignore the initial symptoms;
Some cancers are early or even have no symptoms, so most of the nearly 4.5 million new patients diagnosed in the mainland every year have entered the advanced stage.
So the question is, what symptoms of the body are there, which may be the manifestation of cancer?
1. Inexplicable pain: This is the most typical and specific symptom of cancer, no matter which organ has become cancerous, with the continuous development of the disease, patients may have pain symptoms.
This pain can initially manifest as irregular vague, dull, tingling, or traction pain, after which the pain becomes more and more severe, the pain time is longer and longer, and ordinary pain drugs are mostly ineffective.
It should be emphasized here that because cancer is compressive and metastatic, it may cause violations to the surrounding tissues, organs and nervous system of the primary site, and all the parts that sometimes appear pain are not necessarily the primary cancer site;
2, emaciation: the essence of cancer is actually a genetic disease, it is the product of cell DNA mutation, and the cells after these mutations will continue to proliferate to form tumors.
Although the DNA of the cancer cell has changed, it is a part of the body after all, so its proliferation requires a supply of nutrients, and inside the cancer, there is also a rich blood circulation system.
Therefore, the more crazy the cancer cells divide and proliferate, the more nutrients will be consumed, and the patient will become thinner and thinner;
3. Fever: cancer may appear with fever, which is also the most typical cachexia manifestation of cancer. Fever caused by cancer can be roughly divided into two situations, the first is that the cancer is combined with inflammation, resulting in repeated inflammatory fever in patients.
Second, it is cancer fever caused by cancer, which mostly appears in the middle and advanced stages of cancer, because the tumor releases necrosis factor, cancer cells secrete some active substances, or cancer tissue necrosis, which eventually causes cancer fever to appear;
4. Body surface lump: Recently, abnormal lumps have been touched on the body surface, especially the armpits, neck or thigh roots, and have touched painless, irregular shapes, and unclear edges, which are likely to be enlarged lymph nodes, and require high vigilance for whether it is a signal of cancer metastasis.
In addition, in the breast, neck, abdomen and abnormal lump, which may also be cancerous has found its own manifestations, need timely medical treatment to find the nature of the lump;
5. Bleeding: cancer may be combined with bleeding symptoms, which is related to factors such as cancer invading blood vessels, leading to organ perforation, and necrosis of some cancerous tissues.
For example, cancerous female genital organs may be combined with irregular bleeding or contact bleeding from private parts, bowel cancer may be combined with mucus-like bloody stools, stomach cancer or liver cancer may be combined with hematemesis, bladder cancer may be combined with hematuria, etc.
All in all, the manifestations of cancer are diverse, and the symptoms induced by cancerous changes in different organs are also different.
Therefore, everyone should be vigilant in daily life, if the body has long-term discomfort symptoms, but they can not find the cause, or the specific part of the description is not clear, they should seek medical treatment in time for relevant examinations.
