How to Recognize and Treat the Symptoms of Gastric Tumors?
In the early stage, the clinical symptoms of gastric tumor are not very obvious. As the disease progresses, patients may experience discomfort in the upper and middle abdomen, acid reflux, belching, and other symptoms. Some patients may experience pain behind the sternum after eating, as well as a sensation of friction. Surgical resection is recommended for early gastric tumor, while chemotherapy or a combination of both can be used in the intermediate stage. Immunotherapy can be adopted in the late stage.
1. Gastrointestinal Bleeding: Vomiting blood, black stool, and positive fecal occult blood. Most women experience symptoms of minor bleeding in the early stages of gastric cancer.
2. Decreased Appetite: This is a common symptom in the early stages of gastric cancer. It is characterized by a sudden loss of appetite and aversion to fatty foods, which should be distinguished from hepatitis.
3. Change in Pain Pattern: Changes in the pain pattern of chronic gastric diseases are also one of the early symptoms of gastric cancer in women. For example, if the previous pain pattern after fasting or eating was obvious, but recently the pattern has disappeared, or the drugs that were previously effective are no longer effective.
4. Gastrointestinal Symptoms: Symptoms such as gastric distention, acid reflux, belching, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and black stool may occur.
1. Surgical Treatment: It is still the only effective treatment for gastric cancer.
2. Radiation Therapy: Used for patients who are not suitable for surgical resection due to anatomical positioning issues. Radiation therapy can alleviate the symptoms of cardiac obstruction and reduce chronic bleeding from unresectable lesions.
3. Chemotherapy: For advanced gastric cancer, a combination of surgery and chemotherapy is recommended.
4. Immunotherapy.
5. Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment.
