<p style="">Stomach cancer is the fourth most deadly cancer. Statistics in Thailand show that there are an average of 1,100 new cases each year. The malignancy usually arises from abnormal cell division of the stomach lining, leading to cancer. This disease can occur in any part of the stomach and can also spread to other organs such as the liver, pancreas, intestines, lungs, ovaries, and lymph nodes.</p>
<h2 style=" color: #008080;">Pickled and Smoked Foods: Unexpected Dangers!!!</h2>
<p style="">Did you know!!! Consuming pickled foods, processed foods, salted fish, grilled and smoked foods, or even smoking, as well as having a history of cancer in other organs, can increase the risk of infection in the stomach, especially by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, which causes inflammation and stomach ulcers. Chronic ulcers may eventually lead to stomach cancer.</p>
<h2 style=" color: #008080;">Who is at Risk for Stomach Cancer?</h2>
<p style="">Anyone can develop stomach cancer, but statistics show it occurs more frequently in men than women, especially in those aged 55 and older.</p>
<h2 style=" color: #008080;">Early Symptoms to Watch For</h2>
<p style="">Since symptoms occur in the stomach, people often mistake them for simple indigestion. Therefore, if you experience any of the following symptoms, you should monitor them closely and seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment.</p>
<ul>
<li style="">Indigestion, feeling uncomfortable in the stomach</li>
<li style="">Bloating after eating</li>
<li style="">Mild nausea</li>
<li style="">Loss of appetite</li>
<li style="">Burning sensation in the chest</li>
</ul>
<p style="">If symptoms worsen as follows, do not hesitate to get examined:</p>
<ul>
<li style="">Feeling fatigued</li>
<li style="">Blood in stool</li>
<li style="">Vomiting, possibly with blood</li>
<li style="">Unexplained weight loss</li>
<li style="">Regular abdominal pain or bloating after meals</li>
</ul>
<h2 style=" color: #008080;">What Are the Treatment Options for Stomach Cancer?</h2>
<p style="">Although stomach cancer cannot be completely cured medically because most patients are diagnosed late, many patients can live longer and be treated effectively if detected early. Treatment depends on the stage and spread of the disease. The treatment options include:</p>
<ul>
<li style="">Surgical removal of the malignant part</li>
<li style="">Surgery to relieve symptoms</li>
<li style="">Chemotherapy, which may have side effects such as weakness, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, diarrhea, anemia, weight loss, and tingling sensations in the hands or feet, depending on the drugs used</li>
<li style="">Radiation therapy</li>
<li style="">Use of trastuzumab, a drug used in breast cancer treatment, to inhibit cancer cell growth and increase the chance of controlling the cancer</li>
</ul>
<h2 style=" color: #008080;">Health Screening, Risk Detection, and Learning How to Prevent Stomach Cancer</h2>
<ul>
<li style="">Get screened at age 55 and above, as the disease is treatable if detected early</li>
<li style="">Avoid salty foods, grilled and smoked foods that cause chronic inflammation and can lead to cancer</li>
<li style="">Exercise regularly</li>
<li style="">Eat vegetables and fruits</li>
<li style="">Do not smoke</li>
<li style="">Consult a doctor promptly if you are at risk or start experiencing suspicious symptoms</li>
</ul>
<p style="">According to medical assumptions, diet should be a top priority because food is a major factor close to us that we cannot avoid but can choose wisely. Therefore, we should control our diet, choose beneficial foods, and avoid harmful foods such as processed foods, pickled foods, and grilled items. This will improve health and reduce the risk of various diseases, including cancer.</p>
