Symptoms of advanced esophageal cancer and cachexia:

Studies have found that patients in the middle and late stages of esophageal cancer experience difficulty swallowing, cannot swallow solid food smoothly, or swallow it after washing it with soup, and then have difficulty swallowing semi-liquid food. Finally, they have difficulty swallowing liquid food, followed by chest pain or back pain, vomiting mucus, and lumps in the neck and clavicle. When the tumor directly invades or metastases compress the recurrent laryngeal nerve, vocal cord paralysis occurs, leading to hoarseness, bleeding, shortness of breath, and dry cough.

In addition, when widespread cancer cell metastasis occurs throughout the body, it can induce symptoms such as jaundice, ascites, abnormal liver function, dyspnea, cough, headache, coma, etc. In severe cases, esophageal obstruction or complete obstruction may occur, leading to systemic failure. Therefore, early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment are the key to treating esophageal cancer.

To improve the early detection and diagnosis of esophageal cancer, it is necessary to popularize the knowledge of esophageal cancer among the general population, and to conduct examinations at least once a year for high-risk groups, and once every three months for those with high-risk symptoms. Examination methods include esophageal cytology, esophageal X-ray examination, esophagoscopy, serological examination including carcinoembryonic antigen and squamous cell carcinoma antigen, etc., among which esophagoscopy is particularly important.
