What is the precursor of esophagus cancer
Symptom 1: for patients with dysphagia or foreign body sensation, gastroscopy should be performed as early as possible in order to find early esophageal cancer or precancerous lesions. The onset of esophageal cancer is insidious and asymptomatic in the early stage.
Symptom 2: some patients have foreign body sensation in esophagus, or slow or choking sensation when passing through food. It can also be manifested as poststernal burning, acupuncture like or traction like pain when swallowing. Advanced esophageal cancer is often due to dysphagia.
Symptoms: malnutrition, emaciation, cachexia, and cancer metastasis, compression and other complications. Such as hoarseness caused by compression of recurrent laryngeal nerve by cancer, pain caused by bone metastasis, jaundice caused by liver metastasis and other symptoms.
matters needing attention
Patients with esophageal cancer should avoid contact with spicy food, and exercise properly every day. When swallowing, there is a foreign body feeling in the esophagus, just like what you want to eat sticking to the food wall, you can't swallow and spit out, but it will disappear after eating.
