Gastric cancer is the digestive tract tumor with the highest incidence rate at present, and people once described gastric cancer in this way? Surgery can't cut it cleanly, and radiotherapy will kill you. As a matter of fact, stomach cancer is not that scary, and it can be controlled and cured. Once you are unfortunate enough to suffer from stomach cancer, don't give up on yourself, you should know that there are many stomach cancer patients who have a good recovery effect after wood.

Stomach cancer is a multifactorial disease, and not all stomach problems will turn into stomach cancer, so don't worry about it if you have stomach discomfort. However, for those who have stomach cancer related diseases, they should pay attention to it.

Chronic atrophic gastritis, gastric mucosal epithelial hyperplasia, gastric mucosal epithelial heterogeneous hyperplasia, chronic gastric ulcer, etc. should be closely monitored and actively treated. If there is Helicobacter pylori infection, it should be actively treated and eradicated. If you have a family history of stomach cancer, you should have regular checkups, especially if you have a male family history of stomach cancer.

Facing the possible symptoms of stomach cancer,? Strategies? to be? defy? The first step is to make sure that you are aware of the symptoms and that they are not being treated as such. tactically, you need to pay attention to it. To pay attention to

If there are symptoms such as epigastric discomfort or pain, loss of appetite, lethargy, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, vomiting blood or black stools, anemia, and abdominal lumps.

On one hand:

There is no need to be afraid because these are ****same symptoms of both gastric cancer and other gastric diseases. If these symptoms appear, they can be diagnosed by upper gastrointestinal imaging and fiberoptic gastroscopy to confirm whether it's gastric cancer or not, and the current detection of serum gastrointestinal tract cancer markers is also more effective for the early diagnosis of gastric cancer, so you might as well go to the hospital to do such examination.

On the other hand:

Because early gastric cancer has no specific symptoms, it is easy to be ignored by patients and medical personnel. Don't think that only severe pain indicates that stomach disease has become cancerous. In fact, some epigastric discomfort symptoms, such as mild stomach pain, swelling and heaviness, hidden pain in the heart socket, etc. are early signals of stomach cancer. However, many patients often equate these signals with gastritis or ulcer disease, thus taking a wrong direction in treatment.

Watch out for early warning signs of stomach cancer. The first step in the process is to make sure that you are aware of the signs and symptoms of the disease.

Additionally, if the cancer occurs in the sinus area of the stomach, changes in duodenal function and rhythmic pain can occur. And this symptom is extremely similar to gastric ulcer. If you subjectively think that it is just gastric ulcer and take medication by yourself, it is also easy to delay the correct treatment.

Therefore, any elderly people without gastric disease should be alert to the possibility of gastric cancer once they have black stools. Especially when it is not easy to stop after general dietary control or taking gastric drugs, they should go to the hospital in time to receive specialized examination.

Additionally, unexplained weakness, emaciation or progressive anemia are also obvious signs of stomach cancer progression.

In addition, if the pain pattern of the original chronic gastric disease changes or recurs after treatment, vigilance must be raised.

Gastric cancer risk group, pay attention to check gastroscopy

The second thing to check is that the early symptoms of gastric cancer can be easily confused with other diseases, which are often misjudged as gastric ulcers, simple polyps in the stomach, benign tumors, sarcomas, and chronic inflammation in the stomach.

Therefore, patients with unsatisfactory results after regular treatment and gradual weight loss should consider the possibility of gastric cancer, and if gastroscopy can be repeated in a short period of time to biopsy the lesion, misdiagnosis can be reduced. High-risk groups with a family history of gastric cancer should be under regular observation.

However, many people, because they do not have in-depth knowledge of their disease or take a chance, tend to just treat the symptoms without going further to check the cause of the disease. In fact, these patients need to be closely followed up and monitored, which can improve the detection rate of early gastric cancer.

The high-risk groups of gastric cancer include the following:

Those over 40 years old have a history of chronic gastritis, and those who have recently developed dyspepsia have been undergoing gastrointestinal anastomosis for more than 10 years and have suffered from atrophic gastritis, intestinal epithelial hyperplasia, heterogeneous hyperplasia of the epithelial lining of the gastric mucosa, gastric polyps, and pernicious anemia, those who have long been abusing alcohol, smoking, and preferring to have high-salt diets with salty food and eating less fresh vegetables.

The key to preventing and treating gastric cancer is early diagnosis, standardized treatment, and dietary regulation

Even if you are diagnosed with gastric cancer, don't be afraid and discouraged. Because in recent years, the treatment effect of early gastric cancer is getting better and better, and the 5-year survival rate after surgery is higher than 95%. Surgery is the only way to cure gastric cancer, especially minimally invasive endoscopic surgery and laparoscopic-assisted surgery to treat early gastric cancer is less traumatic and faster recovery.

For patients with progressive gastric cancer, controlling the progression of malignancy and prolonging life is not a dream but a possible reality. The key to gastric cancer prevention and treatment lies in early diagnosis and standardized treatment.

Gastric cancer patients will be deteriorating after surgery due to loss of appetite and insufficient nutritional intake, so dietary regulation becomes more important and the following points should be adhered to:

1) Diet should be balanced: the best way to maintain normal nutritional level is to keep a balanced diet. Patients are asked to eat more high-quality protein, vitamin-rich foods, such as fish, lean meat, dairy, mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms and so on.

In addition, more fresh vegetables should be eaten, and half of them should be green leafy vegetables. A high protein diet is mainly to give patients a variety of essential amino acids, because the balance of amino acids will inhibit the development of tumor.

②The food should be soft: avoid eating high salt, too hard, too hot food, avoid overeating, if necessary, can eat more meals, but should be timed, eat easy to digest diet.

③Food should be fresh: eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, eat less salted, smoked and fried fish, meat and other foods, but more should be away from cigarettes and expired food.

All in all, there is no need to worry too much about stomach cancer on one hand, but on the other hand, we should pay great attention to it, especially the high-risk groups, and early detection of signs of budding stomach cancer is especially important for treatment. At the same time, it is also very important to strengthen the intervention of bad habits and the reasonable combination of diet, and do a good job of these we believe that it is possible to prevent and defeat it!
