With the improvement of living standards, people gradually have a sense of health preservation. Many people will go to the hospital for physical examination regularly, and then during the physical examination, many patients will find themselves suffering from nodules. From the clinical point of view, most nodules are benign, as long as you observe them regularly and pay attention to your living habits.

Even so, some patients still feel fear inside. What is a nodule? Will it become cancerous?

-What is a nodule? Can nodules become cancerous?

Nodules are palpable localized round, oval or irregular solid lesions.

Nodules can be inflammatory or non-inflammatory, involving epidermis, dermis or subcutaneous tissue, ranging in size from millet to cherry or larger, and can become plaques when combined with each other.

In essence, a nodule is a relatively small mass, and the larger one is called a mass, which can occur anywhere in the body. Common nodules are thyroid nodules, breast nodules, lung nodules, skin nodules, etc., and most of them are benign. For example, 90% of the most common thyroid nodules are benign. Even if the thyroid nodule becomes cancerous, it is a so-called lazy cancer-papillary cancer.

The nature of nodules will not change, that is, benign nodules will not become cancerous after diagnosis, but the nature of nodules can not be determined by pathological diagnosis.

-White radish is the "accelerator" of nodules?

White radish is a common vegetable in life. However, some people think that the stimulating substances in radish will promote the growth of nodules, so white radish is the "accelerator" of nodules. Is there any scientific basis for this statement?

The spicy ingredients in white radish can promote the secretion of gastric acid and gastric juice, regulate gastrointestinal function and have anti-inflammatory effect. Moreover, vitamin C in white radish has anti-cancer and anti-cancer effects. Eating raw white radish is good for your health.

The seed oil, amylase and crude fiber in white radish have the functions of promoting digestion, stimulating appetite, accelerating gastrointestinal peristalsis, relieving cough and resolving phlegm. Chinese medicine believes that eating raw white radish has many benefits.

Raw white radish also contains an ingredient called anti-tumor activity, which has obvious effects on inhibiting gastric cancer, uterine cancer and esophageal cancer. After finding out the nodules, you can eat white radish, which can not only inhibit the growth of nodules, but also inhibit the growth rate of nodules and prevent cancer.

—— Director of the Department of Gastroenterology: I don't want the nodules to become cancerous, so I should eat seven things less.

"alcoholic food"

After detecting the nodule, the doctor will warn the patient not to eat alcoholic food, including drinking, which will accelerate the growth of the nodule and lead to the aggravation of the disease.

Long-term drinking will reduce the disease resistance of respiratory tract. According to statistics, people who drink alcohol are five times more likely to get lung disease than people who don't drink alcohol. Most respiratory diseases such as pulmonary nodules and bronchi are also caused by drinking.

"Health products containing hormones"

With the improvement of living standards, people realize the importance of health. Nowadays, many friends choose to take some health care products in order to strengthen their physique or achieve the purpose of delaying aging. However, there are a lot of stimulating factors in health care products, which will accelerate the growth of nodules and lead to the deterioration of the disease.

Especially for patients with thyroid diseases and breast diseases, try not to blindly take estrogen, which is not only not conducive to the recovery of the disease, but also destroys the normal function of the trachea and leads to cancer.

"hot food"

Hot foods include common foods such as pepper, leek, pepper and pepper. Although delicious, it is not conducive to the recovery of nodules, and regular eating will accelerate the growth of nodules. Therefore, from the health point of view, patients with nodules should try to eat less hot food.

"Foods with high iodine content"

Porphyra and kelp are rich in iodine, so for thyroid patients, iodine intake should be reduced.

"Pickled food"

Bacon and pickles are not suitable for patients with nodules. Pickled food is a high-salt food. Eating too much will aggravate the condition and accelerate the growth of nodules, and patients with nodules should usually focus on a light diet.

"mango"

Mango with sweet and sour taste and rich juice is very popular among people, but mango is a high-sugar fruit. Excessive drinking will affect the metabolism of sugar in the thyroid gland, increase the workload of the thyroid gland, affect thyroid function, and not help the recovery of thyroid nodules.

"spicy food"

Although spicy food is delicious, it will also accelerate the growth of gastric nodules during eating.
