Cancer is the abnormal cell development in the body that further eradicates the tissues and organs. It can be formed in numerous part of the body, but the effect in most case, prove fatal. Therefore, you should depend on the cancer specialist in Faridabad

Stomach cancer:

The stomach is a vital organ of our body as it is responsible for the digestion of food. When stomach cancer reaches later stages, its nearby organs are affected, such as the liver, intestine, pancreas, and colon. The probability of cancer spreading in these organs increases. Once cancer starts targeting the organs, the patient can experience extreme discomfort in the abdominal area. 

The symptoms of stomach cancer are:

  • Difficulty in swallowing the food

  • Stomach ache

  • Instantly feeling bloated after food

  • Acidity/Heartburn

  • Decrease in appetite

  • Indigestion issues

  • Nausea and Vomiting

  • Irregular weight loss

  • Getting exhausted in small tasks

  • A black-looking stool

The early stages of stomach cancer don't show you most of these symptoms. These symptoms occur when your cancer is spreading to other parts of the body which is called metastatic stomach cancer. The later symptom includes yellow eyes, frequent black stool, bleeding in the vomiting, and a swollen belly.

Types of stomach cancer:

  • Adenocarcinoma stomach cancer 

  • Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are also known as (GIST)

  • Carcinoid tumors

  • Lymphoma

The treatment of stomach cancer includes:

  • Chemoradiation therapy: The therapy is provided to the patients before the complex surgery procedures.

  • Partial Gastrectomy: Only the part of the stomach damaged by cancerous cells is removed surgically. 

  • Gastrectomy: In this surgery, all of your stomach or most of its part is removed. 

The treatment of Stomach Cancer

  • Also known as Gastric Cancer is the growth of anomalous cells in the stomach. It causes below the ribs where the process of tissue generation occurs. According to a study, the fundamental beginning of stomach cancer is from the gastroesophageal junction. It is an elongated tube that connects the esophagus and stomach. The tube is responsible for bringing the food down the stomach for digestion.

  • Your stomach develops cancer because of extreme consumption of junk food, indigestion, smoking, and family history. 

  • A small cancer diagnosis is comparatively easy to cure. It is best for the patients if they have discovered cancer in earlier stage. On the other hand, cancer that has spread its roots to stomach wall and its neighboring organs is tough to treat.

So, immediately visit a cancer specialist in Faridabad for the finest treatment. 

The treatment of Breast Cancer

In the majority of cases, breast cancer occurs in women. The occurrence of the same in men is rare but possible. 

The cancerous cells start growing rapidly in an abnormal manner in the breast area. It kicks off in the milk-producing glands in women and dominates the entire breast area. These cells increase their number and travel the vicinity area with the help of lymph nodes. If ignored its symptoms for a longer time, cancer can spread to the rest of the body.

Breast cancer can also be triggered by estrogen, a female hormone. It is decided by the amount of estrogen secretion in the body. Some women with obesity issues possess more chance of breast cancer exposure than the rest. 

The mutations in the DNA of the cells present in the breast are the most typical cause of breast cancer. Also, poor lifestyle choices and environmental changes can affect the genetic makeup of the breast cells. 

Types of breast cancer:

Breast cancer treatment is available if you have any of the following conditions:

  • Angiosarcoma

  • Inflammatory breast cancer

  • Ductal Carcinoma in situ

  • Invasive Lobular Carcinoma

  • Recurrent Breast Cancer

Symptoms of breast cancer:

  • Lumps in the breast

  • Changes in the appearance of a breast

  • Breast skin transformation 

  • Newly developed inverted nipple

  • Peeling of areola and nipple

  • Redness of the breast skin

These are the initial breast cancer symptoms. In its advanced stage, you can notice bleeding from the nipple and skin cracking.

Breast cancer treatment:

  • Breast cancer treatment involves the complete elimination of breasts safely via surgery. The procedure is called prophylactic mastectomy. 

  • Partial mastectomy is conducted when the affected parts of the breasts are removed.

  • A person is given regular radiotherapy and chemotherapy before surgery.

  • Patients are also exposed to biological and radiation therapy. 

Of all breast cancer patients in the world, men contribute only 1% of that population. It means that the women are affected by breast cancer 99%. Therefore, women are suggested for regular breast screening that can detect the lumps.

Other diagnosis methods that can help in effective breast cancer treatment are Breast ultrasound, Biopsy, Breast MRI, and Diagnostic mammogram. It is wise if women don't ignore any abnormal changes in their breasts and see a cancer specialist in Faridabad.

Conclusion: 

Our miserable lifestyle choices are most responsible for the generation of cancer cells. However, we can prevent ourselves from getting affected by cancer with an improved lifestyle. Also, regularly check your body and don't ignore any symptoms or suspicious changes. This way, we can make cancer preventable.
