Could a fever after a meal be stomach cancer?

With the development of society, the pace of life has accelerated, and people's quality of life has declined greatly, making it difficult to resist the invasion of viruses. Gastric cancer is a disease with high morbidity and mortality rates all over the world. So, is a fever after a meal gastric cancer? Why do people get this disease? What is the cause? Let's see what the experts say.

1. Environmental and dietary factors The incidence of gastric cancer among the first generation of Japanese immigrants to the United States dropped by about 25%, and by about 50% in the second generation. The risk of gastric cancer in the third generation is comparable to that of local American residents. Therefore, environmental factors play an important role in the occurrence of gastric cancer. Certain environmental factors, such as volcanic rock areas, high peat soil, excessive nitrates in water and soil, imbalanced trace element ratios, or chemical pollution, can directly or indirectly participate in the occurrence of gastric cancer through diet. Epidemiological studies suggest that eating more fresh fruits and vegetables, using refrigerators, and storing food correctly can reduce the incidence of gastric cancer, so a reasonable diet is very important. If you have a fever after a meal, you should be alert to gastric cancer.

2. Helicobacter pylori In 1994, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer classified Helicobacter pylori as a Class 1 carcinogen. The incidence of gastric cancer in Hp-infected people is 4-8 times higher than that in non-infected people.

3. Genetic factors Epidemiological surveys have found that people with type A blood have a higher incidence of gastric cancer. The incidence of gastric cancer in relatives of gastric cancer patients is 4 times higher than that in the control group. The incidence of gastric cancer in black Americans is higher than that in white Americans. Therefore, it is speculated that the occurrence of gastric cancer may be related to genetics.

4. Immune factors In recent years, it has been found that people with low immune function have a higher incidence of gastric cancer. This shows that the body's immune dysfunction and reduced immune surveillance of cancer are one of the factors that cause cancer.

5. Smoking is positively correlated with gastric cancer. Tobacco and smoke contain a variety of carcinogenic and cancer-promoting substances, such as benzopyrene, dimethylnitrosamine, phenolic compounds, etc.

Although the medical community has not yet confirmed the exact cause of gastric cancer, the points mentioned by the experts above are generally recognized by the medical community. Our schools, families and society should popularize this knowledge to improve people's quality of life, stay away from diseases and improve health.
