Indigestion and bloating are common symptoms. You can take it lightly and not go to the hospital and survive with regular medicine. However, common indigestion can be a sign of a serious illness. What diseases are these signs of?
◆ Pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic cancer has no symptoms in its early stages. After some progress, a feeling of indigestion appears. There are times when vague digestive disorders persist even when no abnormalities are found in other digestive tests, such as the stomach. Abdominal pain also occurs occasionally, weight loss, and jaundice is quite advanced. If cancer cells have spread to the stomach, unpleasant pain and nausea after eating can also occur.
The reason why pancreatic cancer is considered difficult to treat is that the diagnosis is delayed because clear symptoms appear late. It is good to consult with a doctor in charge of pancreatic cancer if you have patients with grandparents-parents-brothers-sisters, etc., sudden diabetes, or chronic pancreatitis. You can find the disease early if you pay attention to your body.
◆ liver cancer
The liver is a “silent organ” that does not show symptoms even when it hurts. The same goes for liver cancer. By the time symptoms become apparent, it is already quite advanced. Indigestion, abdominal distension, pain in the right upper abdomen, feeling of a lump, weight loss, severe fatigue, etc. may occur. In the case of liver cirrhosis patients, when liver cancer occurs, jaundice or ascites may suddenly become severe.
The greatest risk factor for liver cancer is the hepatitis B and C viruses, accounting for more than 80% of patients. About 9% of liver cancer is caused by alcohol. In the case of middle-aged or older, there are people who have not been vaccinated against hepatitis B. It is good to check antibodies and check liver health. People with cirrhosis of the liver should also be carefully checked for cancer.
◆ stomach cancer
Gastric cancer also has no specific symptoms in the early stages. Even if you feel some discomfort in the upper part, it is difficult to distinguish it from other general gastrointestinal diseases. Some patients experience heartburn symptoms. If it progresses to a certain extent, discomfort in the upper abdomen such as indigestion, bloating, pain, and loss of appetite may occur. As it progresses further, symptoms such as weight loss and anemia may appear.
Gastric cancer has a clear early detection method. After the age of 40, health insurance subscribers can have an upper endoscopy every two years. Early gastric cancer, which is easy to treat, is mostly found incidentally during a health checkup. If you put off endoscopy because it is annoying or scary, you may regret it greatly. In particular, genetics, smokers, and those who like salty food should definitely get a checkup.
◆ Gallbladder cancer – bile duct cancer
Gallbladder cancer, which is cancer of the gallbladder, also has major symptoms such as abdominal pain, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, epigastric or epigastric pain, and jaundice. Also, there are no symptoms in the early stages. Gandhichung (gandystoma) can cause bile duct cancer while parasitizing in the human bile duct for a long time. Eating fresh water raw fish can lead to fluke infection. Freshwater fish must be cooked, and knives and cutting boards must be managed well. Having hepatitis increases the risk of gallbladder-biliary cancer, so you should be vaccinated against hepatitis B. If you have gallstones (especially larger than 3 cm), you are at high risk of gallbladder cancer, so you should consult a specialist.
◆ Acute myocardial infarction
The risk of sudden death from this disease is high if treatment is delayed. The main symptoms are ‘squeezing’ pain in the middle of the chest, cold sweats, and pain that spreads to the left arm, neck, and jaw in addition to the chest, but in the case of middle-aged women, indigestion and chest tightness also occur. There are also symptoms that can be mistaken for gastrointestinal disease, such as vomiting and stomach pain.
Among middle-aged female patients, it is dangerous to take only digestive medicine and lie down to rest. If you suspect an acute myocardial infarction, call 911 or go to the emergency room immediately. Hypertension-diabetes-smokers should be suspicious of this disease. Along with smoking cessation, moderation in salty foods, eating plenty of vegetables and fish, and stress management are also important.
