Will nasopharyngeal cancer cause numbness in the left hand?

1. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignant tumor that occurs in the nasopharyngeal mucosa, and has major clinical symptoms such as headache, nasal congestion, nosebleed, tinnitus, stuffy ears, hearing loss, blurred vision, etc. As the disease progresses, cranial nerve damage may manifest as dysphagia, facial numbness, etc., but generally does not cause finger numbness.

2. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma can cause pain and decreased or absent sense of touch, because the tumor invades the cavernous sinus and damages the trigeminal nerve, and the tumor invades the oval foramen, causing numbness or paresthesia of the auricle, jaw and skin. This may be small, but if nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasizes to the bones in the late stage, it may cause.

In some cases, the left ear sometimes hurts a little

Nasopharyngeal cancer can cause symptoms of stuffy ears, but not all stuffy ears are caused by nasopharyngeal cancer. It is recommended to go to the ENT department of a nearby regular hospital for relevant examinations in time and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

In the early stage of nasopharyngeal cancer, there will be runny nose and bleeding. When the tumor grows, it will block the posterior nostril and cause nasal congestion, which will start with unilateral blockage and then develop into bilateral blockage.
