Early prevention and treatment of gastric cancer? Pay attention to these

When the patient has stomach pain, loss of appetite, weight loss, fatigue, fullness after eating, and mild nausea, it is very likely to be an early symptom of gastric cancer. You should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible. You can change your lifestyle, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, drink more green tea, avoid eating hard and hot food, quit smoking and limit alcohol, etc. These are small things in life, but as long as you pay attention to these small problems, you can prevent gastric cancer.

Nowadays, when people get sick, especially those who have been ill for a long time, they go to the hospital for a check-up. The incidence of cancer is particularly high, and gastric cancer is a common type. Many people are now beginning to pay attention to this and have developed an awareness of disease prevention. This is really a very good phenomenon. As the saying goes, prevention is better than cure, but what is the early prevention and treatment of gastric cancer?
Clinically, patients with early-stage gastric cancer are advised to change their lifestyles, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, drink more green tea, avoid eating hard and hot foods, quit smoking and limit alcohol. If the patient has concurrent gastric diseases, such as chronic atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, and Helicobacter pylori infection, timely examination and treatment are required to prevent further development of the lesion. Because gastric cancer has a certain tendency to cluster in families, people with a family history of gastric cancer are advised to have regular physical examinations to detect early lesions in a timely manner and receive targeted treatment.
Many gastric cancer patients will experience stomach pain in the early stages. At first, they will only feel discomfort in the upper abdomen or a feeling of distension and heaviness, and sometimes a dull pain in the pit of the stomach. Therefore, patients often mistake it for gastritis or ulcer disease. The symptoms can be temporarily relieved after treatment. If the lesion occurs in the patient's gastric antrum, it is likely to induce functional changes in the duodenum and rhythmic pain similar to ulcer disease. This situation is often ignored by patients until persistent pain or even symptoms such as black stools or vomiting blood occur. At this time, the patient's condition has often developed to the late stage of gastric cancer, and at the same time, the best time for treatment has been lost.
Therefore, it is necessary to be alert to stomach pain, an early sign of gastric cancer that has no specific characteristics. People over 40 years old should pay special attention and should undergo gastroscopy in time to confirm the diagnosis.
