What are the dangers of pancreatic cancer

Cancer is a very frightening disease, and the same is true for pancreatic cancer. Many people ignore the importance of the pancreas, and as a result, they do not seek timely treatment to control the disease after feeling unwell. Pancreatic cancer develops quickly and is very harmful to the human body. In severe cases, it can even threaten the patient's life. Let's take a look at the harm that pancreatic cancer can bring to the body.

The main hazards of pancreatic cancer are as follows

1. Pain: Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant disease, but it is difficult to detect the presence of pancreatic cancer in the early stages, and the operation is very difficult. Even after the operation, the long-term survival effect is worse than that of ordinary tumors, so it will cause great harm to the human body. In addition, because they are often advanced patients, some patients will experience pain, and the pain is so severe that they can't sleep all night, which has a great impact on people.

2. Psychological: Among the hazards of pancreatic cancer, the most tormenting to patients is psychological pain. Pancreatic cancer will bring great pain and torture to patients, and patients will always be under great pressure. And during the treatment process, patients will have a strong sense of fear. At this time, family members should immediately make adjustments for the patients, understand the patients' spiritual needs, and meet them appropriately. Let the patients be full of confidence and ensure an optimistic and positive attitude to fight the disease.

3. Jaundice: In the early stage of pancreatic cancer, there may be no symptoms because the lesions are small and confined to the pancreas. As the disease progresses, the tumor will gradually grow larger and involve the gallbladder, pancreatic duct and peripancreatic tissues. At this time, upper abdominal discomfort and dull pain, jaundice, weight loss, loss of appetite, indigestion, fever, etc. will occur. Among these hazards of pancreatic cancer, jaundice is the most obvious. Obstructive jaundice is an obvious symptom of pancreatic head cancer, with an incidence rate of more than 90%.

The above is a detailed introduction to the harm that pancreatic cancer can bring to the patient's body. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. In daily life, we should learn more about pancreatic cancer and actively do preventive work to avoid the trouble of the disease. Finally, I wish you all good health!
