Patients with malignant tumors must be hospitalized immediately in 4 situations, otherwise their lives may be in danger

In the clinic, I was listening attentively to the worries of my patient, Ms. Chen. Ms. Chen is a working woman. Due to long hours of sitting in the office, her waistline gradually thickened, which not only affected her confidence in her appearance, but also made her worry about her health. Ms. Chen: Doctor, I recently saw some articles online saying that abdominal obesity increases the risk of cancer. Is this true? I am now more and more worried about my health. Me: Ms. Chen, your concerns are not groundless. Indeed, many studies have shown that abdominal obesity, which we often call apple-shaped body, is associated with an increased risk of many cancers, especially breast cancer, endometrial cancer and colorectal cancer. But this does not mean that all people with abdominal obesity will get cancer, but that the risk is relatively high. Ms. Chen: Why is this so? I used to think that as long as I didn't get sick, I didn't pay much attention to my body shape. Me: Abdominal fat, especially visceral fat, is not just the part we can see with the naked eye. These fat cells secrete some substances, such as estrogen and insulin. Excessive amounts of these substances may disrupt the body's normal metabolism and increase the possibility of abnormal cell proliferation, thereby increasing the risk of cancer.

Ms. Chen: So what should I do? Do I need to start losing weight immediately?

Me: Losing weight is a good option, but it is more important to establish an overall healthy lifestyle.

The first step is to adjust your diet, reduce high-calorie, high-fat foods, and increase the intake of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains.

The second is to increase physical activity, at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week.

Ms. Chen: I am very busy at work. Sometimes I even eat in a hurry, let alone exercise.

Is there any simple way?

Me: Of course. You can try incorporating movement into your daily routine, such as taking the stairs instead of the elevator, taking a walk during your lunch break, or doing some simple yoga and stretching exercises at home.

At the same time, it is also important to get enough sleep and learn to relax and reduce stress.

Ms. Chen: That sounds good. I'll try it. Is there anything else I should pay attention to?

Me: Regular physical examinations are also very necessary, especially for people with a family history of illness.

In addition, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption are also important measures to reduce the risk of cancer.

Ms. Chen: Thank you, doctor. I will put these suggestions into practice.

I also want to share this knowledge with my friends so that everyone can pay attention to their own health.

Me: Very good, Ms. Chen.

A healthy body is our greatest wealth. I hope everyone can realize the importance of prevention and take practical actions to protect their health.

After listening to my advice, Ms. Chen started a new chapter in her healthy life.

She first started by changing her eating habits, reducing her intake of greasy and high-sugar foods and choosing more fresh vegetables and fruits.

She also bought a juicer and prepares a glass of nutritious green juice for herself every morning to start the day with energy.

During breaks at work, Ms. Chen is no longer addicted to her mobile phone or computer, but instead uses this time to do some short exercise.

She placed a small standing desk mat in her office and stood up to work for a while every hour to relieve the discomfort caused by sitting for a long time.

During her lunch break, she would walk out of the office and take a walk in the nearby park, breathing fresh air and relaxing her body and mind.

In order to better monitor her health, Ms. Chen also bought a smart bracelet, which can help record daily steps, heart rate, sleep quality and other data.

By analyzing these data, she can plan her exercise plan and daily routine more scientifically.

A few months later, Miss Chen came to me again for a physical examination.

To her delight, not only did her weight drop, her waist circumference also shrank significantly, but more importantly, her overall health indicators improved significantly.

Me: Ms. Chen, you have done a great job! Your changes are not only external, but more importantly, your inner health has been improved.

Continue this active lifestyle and I’m sure you’ll have a healthier, more vibrant life.

Ms. Chen: Thank you, doctor. All these changes are inseparable from your professional guidance.

I now feel full of energy, and the pressure of work and life no longer makes me feel exhausted like before. I also share my experience with my family and friends, hoping that they can also benefit from it. Miss Chen's story inspires people around her. Her transformation proves that even in the busy modern life, it is possible to find an effective way to balance health and work. Through unremitting efforts and correct lifestyle habits, everyone can lay a solid foundation for their health and welcome a better future.
