The most obvious sign of stomach cancer

The most obvious signs of gastric cancer include stomach pain, indigestion, weight loss, anemia and bleeding, abdominal lumps, etc.

1. Stomach pain: Patients with gastric cancer often experience stomach pain, especially pain in the left upper abdomen. This pain may persist without obvious patterns, and is sometimes accompanied by acid reflux and burning sensation.

2. Indigestion: Gastric cancer impairs digestive function, and patients may experience indigestion symptoms such as fullness and burning sensation after meals. As the disease progresses, these symptoms may gradually worsen.

3. Weight loss: Since the tumor consumes a lot of energy and has metabolic disorders, gastric cancer patients often experience unexplained weight loss and emaciation. According to statistics, about 60% of patients may experience symptoms of weight loss.

4. Anemia and bleeding: Gastric cancer may cause anemia, which is manifested as pale complexion, weakness in the limbs, etc. At the same time, patients with gastric cancer may experience bleeding symptoms such as vomiting blood, blood in the stool, or black stool, which is usually caused by tumor invasion of blood vessels.

5. Abdominal mass: When the tumor tissue is particularly large, the patient may feel a hard mass in the abdomen, which is painful when pressed. This sign may mean that the disease has developed to a more serious stage.

If the above symptoms occur, you should seek medical attention for further examination in time to detect and treat gastric cancer at an early stage.
