Cancer symptoms: Most of the deaths in non-communicable diseases are due to cancer . Every year the patients of this disease are increasing. There is a possibility of manifold increase in cancer patients in India by 2025. The biggest problem of cancer is that its symptoms are not detected on time. Since its symptoms are similar to those of common diseases, people are not able to identify them easily. Many people remain confused about this disease as well.
Often a big question is also whether every lump in the body is cancer? To know the answer to this question, we have talked to the expert.
Dr. Kishore Singh, Medical Director of Delhi Cancer State Institute, says that there is a lot of lack of information among people about cancer. People think that the symptoms of cancer are different, whereas it is not so. If a disease persists for several weeks, then it can become cancer. When cells start growing rapidly in any part of the body, it becomes cancer. In the last 10 years, the patients of this disease have increased manifold. This disease is increasing so much due to poor diet and spoiled lifestyle.
Is every lump cancerous
In answer to this question, Dr. Kishore says that not every lump in the body is cancer. Only in 10 to 15 percent of cases can a lump become cancerous. In other cases, there are no cancer cells in the lump. If there is a lump in the body, do not consider it as cancer. See the doctor first. The disease can be detected only after investigation. Some people get the problem of lump in the throat. It can also be any type of cyst. In such cases it is necessary to consult a throat doctor.
Which cancer cases are coming more
Dr. Kishore says that there are more cases of lung cancer in men and breast cancer in women. Apart from this, cases of prostate cancer also come in men in old age. Most of the cases of this cancer are reported in advanced stage. Cervical cancer is the second most common case of women after breast cancer. This cancer is more in rural areas.
How to prevent cancer
To prevent cancer, it is most important to keep the lifestyle right. Exercise daily. If there is any kind of problem in the body. If this problem persists for three to four weeks, then definitely get treatment from the doctor. If the problem is not reducing, then the doctor prescribes your biopsy test. In which it is known whether there is cancer or not. But for this it is important not to take any problem in the body lightly and get it treated at the right time.
