What are the common symptoms of pancreatic cancer patients

The early symptoms of pancreatic cancer are not obvious, and even in the middle and late stages the symptoms are atypical, so it is difficult to detect.

Take Mr. Wang as an example. He has always been in good health, but he is addicted to alcohol and cigarettes. He only had occasional upper abdominal discomfort half a year ago. He didn't take it seriously at first. Later, his waist and back began to hurt. He thought it was muscle strain. Later, he received certain treatments, but the effect was not obvious. Later, his appetite decreased greatly and he had gastrointestinal reactions. Mr. Wang, who was suffering from many diseases, finally decided to go to the hospital for examination.

After listening to Mr. Wang's story, the doctor asked him to undergo a series of tests and later diagnosed him with pancreatic cancer. Fortunately, due to timely detection, no distant metastasis occurred. At the same time, the doctor reminded Mr. Wang that the symptoms of pancreatic cancer are generally not obvious, but the following symptoms are likely to be caused by pancreatic cancer:

1. Upper abdominal discomfort and dull pain, which are the most common symptoms of advanced pancreatic cancer;

2. Gastrointestinal reactions such as loss of appetite, indigestion, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, constipation or gastrointestinal bleeding;

3. Significant weight loss and unexplained weight loss;

4. Jaundice is the most important clinical manifestation of advanced pancreatic cancer. Obstructive jaundice is the most prominent manifestation of pancreatic head cancer, which usually worsens persistently or progressively.
