As we all know, with the acceleration of the pace of life, many people do not have a healthy and regular diet, and over time, gastrointestinal problems will occur.
Especially if the disease is not treated in time, the condition will continue to worsen, the damage to the stomach will be more obvious, and eventually even turn into stomach cancer that threatens the physical and mental health of patients.
Therefore, no matter what kind of stomach disease occurs, it must be treated in time, such as the four stomach diseases mentioned below, if it is delayed for a long time, the more likely it is to become stomach cancer.
1. Acute gastritis
Some people think that acute gastritis is not a big problem, as long as it does not affect normal life, but it is not known that after local inflammation, it will continue to invade other parts of the stomach and intestines, resulting in indigestion and loss of appetite.
And as time goes on, the stomach mucosa becomes more and more seriously damaged, and the likelihood of cancer increases in this case.
2. Stomach ulcer
Related surveys show that more and more people are now plagued by stomach ulcers, and five percent of stomach ulcers may develop to the point of stomach cancer.
Because the appearance of gastric ulcers is related to Helicobacter pylori, when this pathogen has been parasitic in the stomach, its function will decline, it is easy to damage the gastric mucosa, resulting in an increase in the area of the ulcer, long-term non-healing, Helicobacter pylori continues to invade, it is likely to induce cancer cells, which in turn will lead to gastric cancer. Therefore, when you have relevant symptoms, you must seek medical attention in time.
3. Chronic atrophic gastritis
And ordinary gastritis is completely different, chronic atrophic gastritis represents that the gastric mucosa has been damaged very seriously, if not paid attention to, or still have some bad habits, the gastric mucosa will continue to be injured, repeatedly this situation, it will cause intestinal metaplasia and atypical hyperplasia problems, severe will also increase the probability of cancer.
Therefore, when chronic atrophic gastritis is found, it is necessary to carry out treatment and pay attention to developing good living habits.
4. Stomach polyps
If there is a polyp in the stomach on physical examination, regardless of the size of the body, it must be removed, especially the adenomatous polyps, not only the tendency of family inheritance, but also in the process of the continuous development and increase of the volume of the polyps, it may also cause adverse symptoms, and some even change in nature, which will induce cancer cells.
Through the above understanding, we all know the seriousness of stomach cancer, so in the above several stomach diseases in time to treat, in order to prevent cancer, at the same time, but also to observe the abnormal performance of the body, if these symptoms appear, it is likely to be the early symptoms of gastric cancer.
1. Stomach discomfort
The stomach discomfort mentioned here includes stomach pain and loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting and other manifestations.
2. Inexplicable weight loss
Clinically, it is believed that early patients with stomach cancer do not have too obvious digestive symptoms, but when the disease develops, about one-third of patients will have inexplicable weight loss problems and physical fatigue.
3. Anemia
Anemia is also one of the typical symptoms of early gastric cancer, because when the disease worsens, patients have problems with stomach bleeding.
In summary, although the stomach disease does not seem to be serious, if it is not treated or treated in time, the gastric mucosa will be more seriously damaged, and even develop stomach cancer. Therefore, no matter what kind of gastrointestinal disease, it must be highly valued.
In addition, if there is a stomach discomfort mentioned above, inexplicable weight loss and anemia, you must be vigilant whether stomach cancer has arrived.
