What are the early symptoms of cardia cancer? Be careful if you have these symptoms

The cardia refers to the interface between the esophagus and the stomach. The food we eat will pass through the esophagus and into the stomach, so its role is very important. However, if you don't pay enough attention to it in your daily life, the cardia is prone to some diseases, and the more serious one is cardia cancer. Let's introduce the early symptoms of cardia cancer.

1. Upper abdominal discomfort

Patients with early-stage cardiac cancer will experience upper abdominal discomfort and a dull pain, and are often diagnosed with gastritis or ulcer disease. Although treatment for these diseases can relieve symptoms, it cannot fundamentally cure cardiac cancer.

2. Chest pain

Early symptoms of kidney cancer also include chest pain, the main manifestation of which is pain in the front chest and back, and a colic feeling under the xiphoid process. Some patients also experience persistent pain in the lower back and back. This indicates that the cardiac cancer tumor has invaded the pancreas and other retroperitoneal tissues. If the pain is very severe and lasts for a long time, the patient often finds it unbearable.

3. Dysphagia

Dysphagia is also one of the common early symptoms of cardia cancer. Most patients will experience this symptom. They will feel very strenuous when swallowing food, and it will take a long time. When food passes through the esophagus, there will be a foreign body sensation, and it is usually fixed in a certain position, and it always feels like the food cannot be swallowed completely. This symptom is not very obvious in the early stage, and it appears intermittently, so it is easy to be ignored.

4. Upper gastrointestinal bleeding

Some patients with cardia cancer may also experience symptoms of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in the early stages, mainly vomiting blood and passing tarry stools. Some patients may have severe bleeding, which may be accompanied by collapse, shock, and severe anemia.

5. Weakness, fatigue and lack of energy

Many patients with cardia cancer will have unexplained weakness and lack of energy in the early stage, and the symptoms will worsen over time. Some patients also have secondary symptoms of indigestion. After eating, patients will experience bloating and belching, and their food intake will be greatly reduced, which will lead to weight loss and become thin and weak.
