- Early symptoms of cancer include bleeding and rapid weight loss, and if these symptoms persist, you should get tested for cancer.
- The main symptoms of each cancer include pain and discomfort in stomach cancer, jaundice in liver cancer, coughing and dyspnea in lung cancer, etc.
- If the symptoms recur, it is important to find the cause at the hospital and get tested for cancer.
I will tell you about two early symptoms of cancer. Cancer is more problematic when it is detected late, but if it is detected early, the cure rate is also high, so it is most important to detect it early. I will tell you about the early symptoms that our body sends in the early stages of cancer, so please be sure to know them.
Early Symptoms of Cancer
It is not easy to find early symptoms of cancer unless you observe yourself well. Moreover, if you find it early, the survival rate is also high and the cure rate is also high. To do that, you should take a good look at your body condition, and if you ignore the signals your body sends or you don't notice them well, you will have problems, so you need to be careful.
Bleeding and bruising for no reason
The first is bleeding or bruising for no reason. If you have bleeding for no reason, you should suspect cancer. Even healthy people
can be exposed to cancer. However, our body's immune system has a system that repairs faulty genes and destroys faulty cells.
When health problems occur beyond the capacity of this system, cancer occurs. The symptom that cancer grows or moves to other
places, i.e., metastasis, is scary. When cancer metastasizes, bleeding often occurs in the process of moving through existing tissue.
When cancer cells grow wildly, they attract blood vessels and receive nutrients through the blood. This is called neovascularization.
Bleeding can occur during regeneration, so if you have bleeding for no particular reason, you should suspect cancer first.
Rapid weight loss
The second symptom is rapid weight loss. This is because cancer cells use up a lot of energy in our body to proliferate. The reason
for creating new blood vessels is to work hard to keep cancer cells proliferating.
In that case, muscles or fat are significantly reduced. If your muscles are significantly reduced for no particular reason, or if
you lose weight and your fat decreases, you should suspect cancer.
As cancer cells grow, they press on the digestive system, such as the small intestine, large intestine, and stomach, making you
lose your appetite, reducing your food intake, causing frequent nausea, and making it difficult to swallow food, which can
lead to weight loss. Energy metabolism is high, but energy is depleted, so you feel more tired.
About 40% of all cancer patients had weight loss at the time of diagnosis, and about 80% of digestive cancer patients had rapid
weight loss at the time of diagnosis.
If sudden changes in your body occur repeatedly over a long period of time, cancer cells grow much faster than chronic disease
symptoms. Unlike chronic diseases that progress slowly over a long period of time, cancer progresses rapidly in many cases.
If your symptoms don't improve even after taking chronic disease medication, or if your pain doesn't improve even after taking
painkillers, and you feel like you're living differently than your usual lifestyle, you need to pay more attention to your body.
Signs and Symptoms by Cancer Type
Here are the signs and symptoms of each type of cancer. Please refer to it.
1. Stomach cancer
Stomach pain, discomfort, feeling of strangeness, heartburn. It may be difficult to swallow food, or you may experience nausea and vomiting, coughing up blood, or bleeding in your stool.
2. Liver cancer
You may feel pain in your side, a heavy feeling in your upper abdomen, especially a feeling of tightness in your chest, bloating, physical weakness, and severe fatigue. And because the liver is related to the eyes, jaundice can appear in the eyes and skin, or red spots can appear on the skin, or your face may turn dark. These are the most common symptoms.
3. Lung cancer
Coughing up phlegm mixed with blood, shortness of breath, chest pain, or a hoarse or rough voice. If you have these symptoms, you should suspect lung cancer.
4. Colon cancer
Sudden constipation. Diarrhea and constipation alternate, or the thickness of your stool changes. It is usually thinner. Abdominal pain, abdominal bloating, fatigue, loss of appetite, indigestion, etc. can all occur.
5. Breast cancer
Discharge from the nipple may occur, or the nipple may contract or become inverted. The shape may have changed, or you may feel discomfort in your breasts. The skin itself may appear red, and if you raise your arm, the breast may sink in. You may also experience armpit pain and swelling.
6. Cervical cancer
Bleeding from the vagina may occur, or there may be excessive vaginal discharge. You may also experience pelvic pain.
7. Pancreatic cancer
Jaundice, dark urine, skin itching, or back pain may occur. Because blood clots are common in the legs, edema is also common.
8. Thyroid cancer
A lump may be felt in the neck, or you may have breathing problems and a hoarse voice. There are swelling and pain in the neck, and persistent cough.
9. Bladder cancer
Hematuria, bladder irritation, and pain can occur.
10. Prostate cancer
You may have difficulty urinating, hematuria, constipation, abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, or diarrhea. You should suspect prostate cancer.
11. Brain tumor
Intracranial pressure may increase, causing headaches, nausea and vomiting, vision loss, and dizziness.
In conclusion
Not all symptoms mean you have cancer. However, because it is possible to suspect cancer, if it is repeated, it is recommended
that you visit a doctor to find the cause or have a cancer screening.
