Cancer is such a deadly disease that people get goosebumps on hearing its name. And why not, every year lakhs of people are falling prey to this disease. Slowly this figure is only going to increase. It should be said to be the result of bad lifestyle or deteriorating eating habits. You must have heard that if cancer is detected in the early stages then it can be treated successfully. However, some of its symptoms can be so common that we usually ignore it. Recently, renowned cancer surgeon Dr. Shailesh Putambekar ji, who appeared on Ranveer Allahabadia’s podcast, talked about some such very early symptoms of cancer during the conversation. Let’s know about them.
Frequent mouth ulcers
According to Dr Shailesh, if you have frequent problems of ulcers in your mouth, then you should not ignore it at all. This can be a symptom of pre-cancer, which doctors call stage zero. However, it is not necessary that this is a symptom of cancer, many other diseases also cause the problem of ulcers in the mouth. However, if this continues with you, then you must consult a doctor.
white spots on tongue
If you are seeing white patches on your tongue, then you should immediately consult a doctor. This is also a very common symptom of stage zero. Although there can be many oral and health issues behind this, but if this problem is seen more often, then it is wise to consult a doctor.
Stomach related problems always persist
According to Dr. Shailesh, if you often have stomach related diseases, then it clearly means that something is not right in your body. It may be a complaint of constant constipation or your stomach is not getting cleaned properly. If you often have such problems, then you must consult your doctor.
Rapid weight loss
If your weight is falling rapidly even after eating good food in the right quantity, then it can be a matter of concern. This means that something is definitely going on in your body which is not normal. In such a situation, you should definitely go to your doctor and discuss about this.
These changes are visible in the body
Apart from all these symptoms, Dr. Shailesh has also mentioned some symptoms which may seem very normal but they are not normal for the body. One of these is the appearance of a lump on the body. If you see a lump on your body which was never there before, you must show it to a doctor. This can also be an early sign of cancer. Apart from this, if there is a mole or wart on your body which is suddenly growing rapidly, then also do not forget to show it to a doctor and take advice.
