Why does child grow tumour

summary

Children are supposed to be healthy and happy, but a few days ago I saw a report that a five month old girl had a slip on her arm, so why does the child have a tumor? Let's learn about it.

Why does child grow tumour

First, despite the relatively low incidence rate of malignant tumors in children, malignant tumors have become one of the leading deaths in children under 15 years of age, with the mortality rate of infectious diseases decreasing and the rate of cure for congenital malformations. The types of malignant tumors in children are quite different from those in adults. The main types of malignant tumors in adults are stomach, lung, liver, breast and other organs. The main types of malignant tumors in children are leukemia, lymphoma and central nervous system tumors.

The second reason is that the causes of tumors in infants are the same as those in adults. In addition to genetic susceptibility factors, they are closely related to growth environment factors. For example, chemicals and radiation are far more harmful to fetuses and infants than adults.

Third, there is a great relationship between infant tumor and parents. The harmful substances such as paint, petroleum products, solvents, pesticides, pigments and welding aerosols that mom and dad come into contact with will affect the development of fetus through placenta. Benzene, formaldehyde, radon and other toxic gases in home decoration, air and water pollution are also the main culprits of cancer. Long time exposure to tobacco smoke pollution in infants and young children incidence rate of tumors will also increase.

matters needing attention

It's a great responsibility for parents to avoid the growth of tumors in their children. From the beginning of pregnancy, mothers should try their best to avoid biological, chemical and physical carcinogenic factors. Maintaining a balanced diet, good living habits and optimistic mood, and doing a good job in pre pregnancy examination and prenatal examination are very beneficial to the healthy development of the fetus. After the birth of BB, we should also try to avoid contact with the above-mentioned carcinogenic factors.
