Will my stomach hurt in the early stages of gastric cancer?

In the early stages of gastric cancer, the stomach will experience pain symptoms, which are generally irregular and continuous. As the disease progresses, the symptoms will become more and more severe. If the pain symptoms are regular but irregular, cancer may have occurred and you should check and treat as soon as possible. Do not delay. Usually, the pain worsens within two hours after a meal, and severe patients also have obvious stomach pain when resting. If the pain continues to occur, affecting the quality of life, or the pain symptoms become more and more obvious, you should go to the hospital for examination in time.

Patients will also experience symptoms of weight loss, usually poor appetite, weakness and fatigue, and severe indigestion and diarrhea, especially after eating greasy food. This is because gastric cancer patients cannot absorb and digest food well, which affects their weight, causes them to lose weight in a short period of time, have a yellow face, and may vomit.

Patients with early gastric cancer may also have symptoms of black stool. Usually, they do not eat any pig blood, duck blood, or black food. It is abnormal for their stool to turn black automatically. It is best to go to the hospital for laboratory tests. If the test result is positive, be careful, as the body will show signs of severe anemia. Combined with the judgment, it may be an early symptom of gastric cancer, so pay close attention.

You may also experience gastric lumps, nausea, and hard objects in the stomach. Be careful if you experience nausea and vomiting. The lumps may slowly metastasize over time, making the symptoms more severe and leading to many other uncomfortable symptoms. You need to go to a regular hospital for a systematic examination and do not delay treatment.
