summary

So far, cancer is still a very frightening disease, because in most people's minds, cancer is still a terminal disease. In fact, cancer can be treated by early detection and early treatment. Through targeted treatment and later attention, the five-year survival rate and quality of life of cancer patients can be greatly improved. In order to find out this cancer disease as soon as possible, it is necessary to have a self-health examination at ordinary times. At the same time, it is also necessary to understand some symptoms of this disease, so as to avoid carelessness and missing the opportunity. Today, let's talk about some manifestations of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignant tumor occurring in the nasopharyngeal epithelium. The incidence rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is relatively high in Guangdong. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma usually begins to increase after 20 years old, and the peak is at 40-60 years old. So people of this age must pay attention to their health.

In general, the early symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma are easy to be ignored. The common symptoms are only a small amount of blood in sputum or nose, sometimes not, unilateral tinnitus or hearing loss, sense of occlusion in the ear, unfixed, intermittent headache, and possibly nasal congestion.

matters needing attention

This paper briefly analyzes and understands nasopharyngeal carcinoma. If nasal congestion, nosebleed or tinnitus often occur, we need to actively check and exclude the possibility of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, because the earlier nasopharyngeal carcinoma is treated, the higher the five-year survival rate is,
