What is Stomach Cancer?
Stomach cancer is a kind of malignant tumor, and there are some obvious geographical differences in its incidence, generally the incidence rate is higher in the northwest and the eastern coastal areas of China, and most of them are over 50 years old, and the incidence rate ratio of men to women is 2:1.
Symptoms of stomach cancer
Upper abdominal discomfort and fullness
There is often a feeling of abdominal sizzling, noise and fullness, which is especially obvious after meals, and the performance is getting worse as the disease develops. These symptoms should be distinguished from indigestion and slow gastritis. Indigestion often has a history of careless eating and overeating, while slow gastritis usually has a history of recurrence.
Loss of appetite
In the early stage of gastric cancer, it often manifests as loss of appetite and hate greasy food. This should be distinguished from hepatitis, which is often characterized by symptoms such as fever and weakness and jaundice.
Nausea, belching, acid reflux and vomiting
Nausea is most pronounced when the gastritis lesion is located in the pylorus at the gastric outlet. If the gastric outlet is completely blocked, a sour or egg-smelling odor is belched or vomiting occurs, with the vomit mostly consisting of persistent food and gastric juice.
Vague pain in upper abdomen
The pain of early gastric cancer is indefinite, or it may appear as continuous vague pain, unlike gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer which have more obvious pain after meal or pain before meal. If the patient originally suffered from gastric or duodenal ulcer disease, the regularity of pain may be suddenly changed, and the drugs that were effective in treating ulcer disease suddenly become ineffective or significantly less effective.
Vomiting blood and black stool
If the cancer only destroys small blood vessels, it often appears as “occult blood” in the stool, that is, the stool looks normal, but blood cells can be found in it. If the cancer invades larger blood vessels in early stage, it will cause vomiting blood and black stool or tar-like stool. In gastric cancer, occult blood and black stool are persistent and persistent, while bleeding caused by gastric and duodenal ulcers is mostly intermittent and can be stopped with timely treatment.
Acute wasting and severe anemia
Cancer is a consuming disease, and gastric cancer can make patients suffer from poor digestion and absorption, which will aggravate the wasting and anemia.
Knowing and being alert to the above early signs of stomach cancer is the key to early detection of stomach cancer. It is worth noting that the above six conditions may not necessarily exist in one patient or at the same time, as long as one of them appears, especially in women over 40 years old, they should be taken seriously and go to hospital for necessary examination in time.
Causes of stomach cancer
1.Smoking too much
Some friends can’t understand that smoking is not a cause of lung cancer, so it is acceptable to say that it causes lung cancer, but how can it be related to stomach cancer?
In fact, this is a narrow view of health. The harm caused by smoking to human body is comprehensive, whether it is first-hand smoke or second-hand smoke, it will stimulate the stomach after entering the stomach, which will aggravate the secretion of gastric acid and cause the contraction of gastric mucosa, thus destroying the gastric mucosa, which are all causes of stomach cancer.
