Can Inflammation Develop into Cancer

Inflammation may develop into cancer, but not all inflammation becomes cancer. Normal inflammation, mainly due to bacterial or viral infection, and lead to localization of local redness, swelling, swelling and pain and other inflammatory reaction process. The disease itself is not cancerous and can be cured by active anti-infection treatment. However, if the local tissues are stimulated by chronic inflammation for a long time, the original normal cells may lose control and become cancerous. Examples of inflammatory diseases are atrophic gastritis, chronic pancreatitis, chronic ulcerative colitis, and hepatitis B. Therefore, if inflammation is not cured or treated in time, it may increase the risk of cancer. So when there is inflammation, patients should treat it timely and effectively and not allow it to develop into chronic and recurrent inflammation in order to prevent the occurrence of cancer.
