What are the common hazards of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Clinically, nasopharyngeal carcinoma is regarded as a more serious type of malignant tumor. The harm caused by nasopharyngeal carcinoma to the patient's body is complex and diverse. It affects the patient's quality of life. The most serious thing is that it causes the patient to suffer both physically and mentally. Let's take a closer look at the specific manifestations of the harm of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

1. Stuffy feeling in the ears

This is the most common health hazard that patients have to endure. Many patients will gradually lose their hearing after the onset of the disease. The feeling of stuffiness in the ears and hearing loss are also early danger signs of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. This symptom is caused by the nasopharyngeal carcinoma neoplasm blocking the lateral Eustachian tube opening. Hearing loss may also be caused by further deterioration of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and damage to the auditory nerve. Once again, it should be noted that these ear symptoms are very easy to be misdiagnosed as otitis media or other ear diseases, thus missing the best time for treatment.

2. Blood in the nasal discharge and nasal congestion

This is also one of the common health hazards caused by nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which causes great damage to the health of patients. This type of bleeding has basically no subjective symptoms except for a few occasional nasal discharge, and the bleeding is most frequent in the morning. Nasal congestion is another early clinical diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Most clinical diagnoses show unilateral nasal congestion. If the disease is discovered at this time, the treatment effect is very thorough. When the nasopharyngeal tumor grows, bilateral nasal congestion may occur.

Experts remind that the above two points are the more common hazards of nasopharyngeal cancer. We hope that everyone will focus on prevention and treatment in normal times, so as to reduce the pain of patients. In addition, if nasopharyngeal cancer is serious, it will also cause patients to lose their eyesight and suffer from headaches for a long time. If you have any questions, you can go to a regular hospital for consultation.
