Early symptoms of male gastric cancer?

1. Bleeding, fecal occult blood test positive gastric cancer in the early stage can have bleeding symptoms, and in the late stage of gastric cancer patients with bleeding volume will become very large. Individual can mix brown or dark red blood in vomit. It is difficult for patients to detect a small amount of bleeding, and there is no obvious symptom. A small amount of upper gastrointestinal bleeding can be found by gastroscopy or fecal occult blood test.

2. Anorexia, early gastric cancer patients do not want to eat, obvious anorexia, or after eating full belching, aversion to meat, etc., are more common symptoms of gastric cancer. Nearly 50% of gastric cancer patients have obvious symptoms of anorexia or anorexia, and some patients limit their food intake due to abdominal distension or abdominal pain caused by eating too much after the deterioration of gastric peristalsis. Over time, you will lose weight and slowly lose weight.

3. The regularity of the pain nature of "old stomach disease" changes. More than 80% of patients with early gastric cancer will have upper abdominal pain, which is one of the reasons why we are paralyzed. We think that old stomach disease is always like this, so we let it hurt, do not check, and do not pay attention to it. But if the original nature and regularity of stomachache has changed, we need to pay attention to it: for example, it is always full and painful every time, and it doesn't hurt when sleeping at night. If it suddenly appears, it also hurts continuously when sleeping at night, the pain habit and regularity will change.
