No, Mr. Yang, our neighbor, thinks so, too. He has suffered from bad breath 15 years, which is how he usually treats it, but recently it seems that the smell of bad breath is getting worse and worse. According to his wife, people can't hide it even by chewing gum before they get to him.
This is not over yet. Mr. Yang always feels that his stomach is not strong, and he always has swelling pain. He even discharged black stool when he got up this morning. It seems not so good. At the request of his wife, he had to ask for leave to go to the hospital for examination.
The doctor first asked him to check the Helicobacter pylori, and when it was seriously exceeded, he arranged for him to have a biopsy. The results of the examination actually reached the advanced stage of gastric cancer, which was like a bolt from the blue. Why didn't he feel this gastric cancer earlier?
The doctor told him that his stomach had already warned him that it was long-term bad breath.
Why is bad breath also a signal of gastric cancer? Bad breath is not only caused by oral diseases, but also may be caused by diseases in the gastrointestinal tract. A big reason for the long-lasting bad breath is that it is infected with Helicobacter pylori. Long-term bad breath is a risk factor for stomach diseases.
Helicobacter pylori is the only known pathogen that can survive in strong gastric acid environment. It is closely related to gastric cancer. It will multiply in the stomach, destroy gastric mucosa and promote gastric cancer, becoming a notorious killer of gastric cancer.
According to statistics, among people infected with Helicobacter pylori, 15% to 20% will suffer from peptic ulcer disease, 5% to 10% will have dyspeptic symptoms, and 1% will develop into gastric malignant tumor.
Moreover, Helicobacter pylori can live in dental plaque, which will produce smelly carbide in the mouth, so it will lead to stubborn bad breath. According to research, the number of Helicobacter pylori infection in the stomach of people with severe bad breath is as much as 150 times that of ordinary people, so long-term bad breath can not be underestimated, and if left unchecked, it may lead to serious consequences.
Of course, it is impossible to judge whether you have gastric cancer just by having bad breath. After all, there are so many reasons that lead to bad breath, so it is obviously not possible to draw conclusions simply by relying on bad breath, but also to see if it is accompanied by the following symptoms.
In addition to bad breath, these three manifestations are common in gastric cancer. If you also have them, please check the gastroscope 1, loss of appetite and weight loss in time.
There is no typical reaction in the early stage of gastric cancer. Only when the cancer tumor grows up slowly, it invades the stomach space or blocks the esophageal orifice will it feel. If you feel hungry, but you are full after eating a few mouthfuls, or if you lose appetite, feel dysphagia during meals, and vomit after meals, then it may be a signal from gastric cancer.
Moreover, because the cancer tumor tissue will grow up, it will compete with the body to absorb nutrients. Without any way, other organs of the body will decompose heat and fat to supplement the energy taken away by tumor cells, which will make the body lose weight.
2, black stool
The feces discharged by healthy people are yellow or brown. If the color of the feces suddenly changes recently, the color is black, the surface is shiny and black, and it is accompanied by an unpleasant smell, then gastrointestinal bleeding has occurred, so be alert to the possibility of gastric cancer.
3. Upper abdominal pain
Because gastric cancer develops from stomach diseases, when the stomach is cancerous, there will be pain in the upper abdomen, and patients with stomach diseases will think that it is just a relapse, so they are too lazy to check and take stomach medicine to relieve themselves. However, if abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain and bloating often occur in the near future, and the pain law is different from the past, then we should be vigilant.
Therefore, for people with bad breath for a long time, people who have stomach problems themselves, we must pay attention to stomach examination, do gastroscopy regularly, and observe the health of the stomach, which is conducive to early detection and treatment of cancer and avoid the deterioration of the condition.
Is helicobacter pylori the main one of gastric cancer? Curse? It is suggested that people with excessive Helicobacter pylori in the stomach must actively remove Helicobacter pylori, which can greatly reduce the chance of developing gastric cancer.
