People must discover these symptoms of esophageal cancer early so that they can go to the hospital for treatment in time. In fact, the symptoms of esophageal cancer will manifest as tingling, the specific content is as follows.

Esophageal cancer experts believe that the symptoms of esophageal cancer are caused by various factors inside and outside the normal epithelial cell receptors of the esophageal mucosa gradually turning into cancer. It is still unclear how long it takes for normal epithelium to develop into cancer. Generally speaking, it takes several years for severe hyperplasia of the esophageal epithelium to develop into cancer, and about a year for early cancer to develop into mid- to late-stage cancer.

The symptom of early esophageal cancer is pain behind the sternum, which is more common when eating rough food. It is a tingling, burning or friction pain behind the sternum or under the xiphoid process. It can be relieved by taking antispasmodics. The pain site of esophageal cancer symptoms is often inconsistent with the lesion site.

In addition, symptoms of esophageal cancer include foreign body sensation or food retention. Foreign body sensation is often a slight tightening and stuffy feeling behind the sternum, which has no obvious relationship with eating and can be intermittent or continuous. Or occasionally, there is a feeling that food is sticking to the esophageal wall when eating.

The main symptoms of advanced esophageal cancer include progressive dysphagia, which eventually develops into difficulty drinking water and even difficulty passing saliva. Food reflux and chest and back pain. If the cancer invades the trachea and bronchus, esophageal-tracheal fistula and (or) esophageal-bronchial fistula may form, resulting in severe coughing, dyspnea and lung infection symptoms.

Some patients with esophageal cancer have symptoms of dryness or tightness in the throat when eating dry food; a few patients have belching. The above are the symptoms of early esophageal cancer described by Western medicine, which are basically consistent with the choking disease in traditional Chinese medicine. Choking means difficulty swallowing and difficulty swallowing; and the diaphragm in traditional Chinese medicine means obstruction of the chest diaphragm, vomiting after eating or even inability to eat, which means obstruction. These are some symptoms of early esophageal cancer and should not be ignored.
