Esophageal cancer is a malignant disease. Many people in the world have died of esophageal cancer, and more than half of them belong to China people. The causes of esophageal cancer in rats are also varied. According to research, esophageal cancer can be inherited. If the elders get esophageal cancer, the probability is very high, partly because of bacteria, including Helicobacter pylori. There are also some dietary reasons, such as frequent drinking and smoking, bad eating habits and the stimulation of some foods, which may lead to the damage of esophageal mucosa and eventually form esophageal cancer. Some people's eating habits are very inappropriate. For example, eating food too fast for a long time can lead to esophagitis, which may lead to esophageal cancer.

Symptoms and manifestations of esophageal cancer

In the early stage of esophageal cancer, there are no obvious symptoms. When there are only ears, there may be some pain when swallowing and foreign body sensation in the esophagus after getting up in the morning. However, with the development of the disease, some patients will have obvious symptoms such as epigastric discomfort, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting. When the disease develops to the middle and late stage, the patient may have symptoms such as dysphagia, food reflux, persistent back pain, hematemesis and melena. Advanced patients will have serious symptoms such as dehydration, jaundice, dyspnea, Brandon paralysis and coma, accompanied by water and electrolyte disorders.

How to prevent esophageal cancer?

If you want to prevent esophageal cancer, you should first reduce exposure to some harmful substances, which will lead to changes in eating habits, avoid always eating some pickled food or overheated food, clean the food before eating, and make early diagnosis and inspection, and do gastroscopy regularly. It is also inevitable that drinking can reduce the irritation to gastric mucosa and reduce the harm of smoking to the middle of the mouth. Also avoid eating some moldy foods, because some moldy foods are also one of the factors that induce esophageal cancer.

Finally, esophageal cancer does not happen overnight. Because the early symptoms are not obvious, they are generally found in the middle and late stages, and it is easy to miss the best treatment time and develop healthy living habits. Regular inspection is the most important.
