People at high risk of cancer should monitor early

Along with improving people's health awareness, more and more people are actively taking measures to prevent cancer.

In particular, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer are very important. Therefore, the related cancer screening tests are of great significance in preventing cancer.

But do you know who should prioritize screening for cancer early? The following are the 3 groups of people at higher risk, which need early screening for effective prevention.

1. People with unusual symptoms related to cancer

The occurrence and development of cancer does not occur in a night. This is a chronic and long-term disease. Therefore, when the body develops symptoms related to cancer, do not ignore it easily, the necessary tests should still be performed.

In general, cancer cells multiply and differentiate indefinitely, requiring a large amount of energy, severely consuming the body and depriving the energy needed for normal cell metabolism.

Cancer patients will often have symptoms of rapid weight loss, because the daily diet will be consumed by cancer cells, resulting in malnutrition and even anemia.

If not treated promptly, the patient will present with weakness, that is, the body is thin, the resistance is low, the spirit is weak and even the phenomenon of unexplained fever will occur.

Therefore, when you feel that your weight is rapidly decreasing in a short period of time, you must be alert to the occurrence of cancer.

Different cancers have different symptoms associated with them

For example, rectal cancer patients will experience changes in stool shape and defecation habits, liver cancer patients lose appetite and cannot eat oily foods, cancer patients. Stomach aches and bloody stools.

In short, when the body has such unusual symptoms, do not underestimate it. Many patients who are diagnosed with a terminally ill condition are the result of a lack of doctor appointments for timely medical visits.

In addition to people with abnormal symptoms that need to be screened for cancer, patients with precancerous lesions also need regular review to prevent cancer.

2. People with pre-cancerous lesions

Precancerous lesions are precursors for the growth of cancer into tissues and are closely related to the onset of cancer. There are currently 8 most common precancerous lesions.

1, People with white spot mucosa, mainly white spots in the oral cavity, gastrointestinal tract, vagina and other tissue mucosa.

2, Chronic gastritis and atrophic gastritis.

3, Cervical erosion, mainly severe cervical erosion (perennial cervicitis).

4, Breast hyperplasia.

5, Keratitis in the elderly

5, Keratitis in the elderly...

7, gastrointestinal polyps, especially hereditary polyps, many.

8, benign tumor disease.

For example, gastritis for long-term gastritis will damage the lining of the stomach, and the development of this process will worsen stomach ulcers, getting closer to danger. Stomach cancer appear

Therefore, people with pre-cancerous lesions need timely treatment for these diseases and they need regular checkups.

In addition to precancerous lesions that can easily cause cancer, there are other high risk factors that need our vigilance, and those who are constantly exposed to these carcinogens also need to undergo cancer related screening tests.

There are many factors that cause cancer to normal cells, including physics, chemistry and biochemistry and some cancers are also genetically affected.

3. People who are regularly exposed to carcinogenic factors

There are many factors that cause cancer to normal cells, including physics, chemistry and biochemistry and some cancers are also genetically affected.

Physical factors include ultraviolet rays, electronic radiation, particulate matter in the air, etc. People who work outdoors often exposed to too much radiation for a long time, prone to skin cancer, there is a lot of dust in the air in the working environment of people working in ore mining, easily causing disease. lung cancer.

Chemical factors primarily refer to toxic chemicals that cause cancer, including moving to a new home, which people have discussed the most in recent times. New interior décor materials and new furniture can contain harmful chemicals that cause leukemia.

Therefore, you should ventilate your new home at least 15 days before you move in. The choice of furniture also needs to be very careful. Furniture without a strange odor does not mean that there are no carcinogens.

Biological factors include various microorganisms, mold in spoiled foods that can cause hepatocellular carcinoma, HBV infection is an important cause of cirrhosis and patients with liver cancer.

HPV infection is a high risk factor for cervical cancer. Many patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma and cancer are carriers of the EB virus. Liver, breast and rectal cancers have a significant genetic predisposition.

People with a family history of this disease are at higher risk for cancer and you should pay attention to check regularly. In addition, the elderly, even without a history of exposure to these dangerous carcinogens, need to be checked regularly to prevent cancer. After all, the older you are, the more likely you are to get cancer.
