Beware of the five signs of stomach cancer

Five warning signs of gastric cancer

1. Upper abdominal pain

This is the most common symptom of stomach cancer. It starts as intermittent dull pain and is often diagnosed as gastritis or ulcer disease.

2. Upper abdominal discomfort

Mostly a feeling of fullness or burning. It can be temporarily relieved and recurring.

3. Indigestion symptoms such as loss of appetite and belching

Symptoms include a feeling of fullness after eating and active dietary restriction, often accompanied by recurrent belching.

4. Black stool or positive fecal occult blood

If your stool turns black without eating blood tofu or taking bismuth or other medications, you should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible.

5. Fatigue, weight loss and anemia

This is another common but non-specific set of stomach cancer symptoms. Patients often experience fatigue and weakness due to loss of appetite and blood loss in the digestive tract. Note: If you have stomach pain, stomach discomfort or digestive tract discomfort, you should go to the gastroenterology department of the hospital in time for a gastroscopy or laboratory examination to find out the cause. The smartest thing to do is to do preventive work before the disease breaks out.

For healthy people, it is not advisable to eat two hours before going to bed.

This includes drinking milk, juice, etc., because milk can cause gastric acid secretion and easily cause damage to the gastric mucosa. For patients with gastric ulcers and patients after gastrectomy, small and frequent meals are recommended. Therefore, it is best to have a meal half an hour before going to bed. Foods such as bread, eggs, and porridge can be chosen. It is not advisable to eat pure liquid food.
