What is leukemia

summary

I often see leukemia on the Internet. I didn't expect that this disease would happen to my friend. He just found out that he had leukemia. Although he has been cooperating with the treatment now, I think he is a little frustrated because the operation costs a lot of money and their family's financial condition is not very good. Now let's share what leukemia is.

What is leukemia

First, leukemia is a kind of clonal malignant disease with abnormal hematopoietic stem cells. The leukemia cells in the clone lost the ability of further differentiation and maturation, and stagnated in different stages of cell development. In bone marrow and other hematopoietic tissues, leukemic cells proliferate and accumulate, infiltrate other organs and tissues, and inhibit normal hematopoiesis.

Second: leukemia is a malignant disease of hematopoietic tissue, also known as "blood cancer". It is characterized by the unlimited proliferation of a large number of non nuclear cells in bone marrow and other hematopoietic tissues, which enter into the peripheral blood and obviously absorb the core of normal blood cells. This disease ranks the first in the malignant diseases of young people.

Third: bleeding is also a more obvious symptom of leukemia, the symptoms of nearly 40% of patients. Bleeding can occur in all parts of the body, common with the skin of unknown causes of ecchymosis, oral, nasal, gingival bleeding, menorrhagia and so on. Blurred retina often indicates fundus hemorrhage. Severe headache, nausea and vomiting often suggest intracranial hemorrhage.

matters needing attention

If suffering from leukemia, it is necessary to treat well, so as not to cause adverse consequences to the body. Of course, if you don't have leukemia, you should actively prevent disease, and strengthen physical exercise at ordinary times, so that you can have a healthy body.
