What symptom does nasopharyngeal carcinoma get

summary

My cousin's physical fitness has always been relatively good, but some time ago, he often had nosebleed. Originally, we all thought it was caused by relatively dry weather, but in order to go to the hospital for examination during the insurance period, the doctor told us it was nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Today I will tell you about the symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

What symptom does nasopharyngeal carcinoma get

Symptom 1: blood in nose is the early symptom of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which is characterized by blood in nose, or blood in nose sucked back from mouth, also known as blood in sputum. Epistaxis often occurs after getting up in the morning.

Symptom 2: hearing loss may also be caused by the further deterioration of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and hearing nerve damage. Tinnitus and hearing loss are often misdiagnosed as otitis media or other diseases, resulting in delayed treatment.

Symptom 3: about 70% of NPC patients have headache at the time of initial diagnosis. The headache symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma are often manifested as migraine, cranioparietal occipital pain or neck pain. The headache of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is mostly related to the invasion of skull base bone, nerves and blood vessels by cancer tissue.

matters needing attention

Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma should go to the regular tumor hospital for treatment as soon as possible. For the neck mass that does not shrink after anti-inflammatory treatment, or even continues to increase rapidly, especially for the hard texture, poor activity, multiple fusion into a group of painless neck mass, they need to see a doctor in time.
