Positive symptoms and signs of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Positive symptoms and signs of nasopharyngeal carcinoma:

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is one of the high-risk tumors, and its main symptoms include nasal congestion, runny nose, nasal discharge, and hearing loss.

Seven signs and symptoms of nasopharyngeal cancer:

The seven major symptoms include nose bleeding, nasal congestion, tinnitus, deafness, headache, facial numbness, and double vision.

The three main symptoms and signs of nasopharyngeal cancer are:

1. Nasal symptoms: Retraction or blowing bleeding may occur in the early stage, which is not easy to attract attention. The tumor will increase, block the nostrils, and cause nasal congestion, which is unilateral at first and then bilateral.

2. Ear symptoms: Tumors occur in the pharyngeal recess and may compress or block the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube in the early stage. This can easily cause tinnitus, ear closure, hearing loss, and tympanic effusion, which can be misdiagnosed as secretory otitis media clinically.

3. Distant metastasis: Advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma can metastasize, commonly to bones, lungs, liver, etc.

Ways to prevent nasopharyngeal cancer:

1. Try to avoid serious pollution of the external air environment. Because the throat is the only way for external air to enter the lungs, the nasopharynx is the first entry before harmful gases enter the lungs.

2. Pay attention to your diet, don't be picky eaters, eat more vegetables, fruits and other foods, because they contain a lot of vitamins. Eat less or no salted fish, bacon, etc.

3. Smoke less and drink less. Smoke contains a lot of nicotine, and alcohol also has a strong stimulating effect on the body, so both will cause damage to the liver, so smoke and drink less in daily life.
