What department should nasopharyngeal carcinoma be examined

summary

During this period of time, I found that my grandfather often had some unexplained fever, and some coughing, and there was blood in his nose. Later, the symptoms became more and more serious, and people gradually became thinner and thinner. After examination, I found out that he was in the late stage of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and now he is ready for radiotherapy. There are some friends who want to do this examination, but they don't know what department to hang up. Now I'd like to share the symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and the departments to hang up, so as to help other patients find out in time.

What department should nasopharyngeal carcinoma be examined

First of all, if you suspect nasopharyngeal carcinoma, you can go to the oncology department. If you really have nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the most common symptoms in the early stage are bleeding, such as coughing, phlegm and blood. The body will gradually become thinner and the body's resistance will decline. If you have such a performance, you should go to the Department of facial features for examination in time. You can do a laryngoscope, and if necessary, you can take pathology for biopsy.

Secondly, the early symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma are not easy to be found, so it is easy to be ignored by patients and doctors. These symptoms include nosebleed, runny nose, obstruction of hearing due to nasal obstruction or obstruction of eustachian tube. As for bleeding, it rarely occurs in the early stage. The later symptoms include overlapping images, facial pain and headache. Because the nasopharynx has a strong lymphatic drainage tube leading to the neck, the first symptom of nasopharyngeal carcinoma spread may be lymph node enlargement.

Finally, suffering from nasopharyngeal carcinoma also has certain symptoms to follow. The most typical symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma are blood in the sputum during nasal suction, accompanied by headache, decreased vision, nasal congestion. If the patient is in the middle and late stage, it can cause epistaxis, visible ulcer or cauliflower tumor in the nasal cavity.
