summary

In our impression, we always think that leukemia is an incurable disease. It's terrible when we think about it. In fact, in today's advanced science and technology, leukemia is not an incurable disease. As long as we detect and treat it as soon as possible, there is still possibility of cure. Let's take a look at the early symptoms of leukemia.

What symptom does leukaemia have at the beginning?

Leukemia in the early stage is no special symptoms, it can be latent in the human body for a long time, early because of health examination or other diseases to see a doctor to find abnormal blood or splenomegaly, was diagnosed. With the development of the disease, fatigue, low fever, hyperhidrosis or night sweats, weight loss and hypermetabolism may appear. As a result of splenomegaly and feeling left upper abdominal distension, fullness after eating and other symptoms.

In the early stage, leukemia patients begin to have high fever and other symptoms, because leukemia is the birthplace of bone marrow. When the cells in bone marrow mutate into tumor cells, they continue to divide and grow, and gradually "eat" the normal bone marrow cells, making the body's hematopoietic function abnormal, normal white blood cells decrease, and abnormal white blood cells grow wildly, The number of white blood cells in normal people is less than 4000-10000, while the number of white blood cells in leukemia patients with tumor is sometimes as high as 100000. Because normal leucocyte is little, immunity is bad, so just can infection send high fever.

Leukemia is a blood type of disease, the symptoms are once injured bleeding, it is difficult to stop. Normal platelet production is inhibited, so that the number of platelets is significantly reduced, coagulation function is damaged, so there will be physical ecchymosis, gum, nose and other bleeding for no reason, and it is difficult to stop bleeding after injury.
