Four morning symptoms of cancer that are usually ignored

Cancer, as you know, is successfully treated in the early stages. The insidiousness of the disease is that it does not manifest itself for a long time.

Doctors advise you to listen carefully to your body and seek help in a timely manner. As British oncologist James Walter said, there are several possible symptoms of cancer that appear in the morning.

— No one says that you should associate any of the signs with cancer and panic. However, a disease detected in time gives a chance for a long remission and a normal life. If you ignore the symptoms, and they turn out to be signs of cancer, then malignant cells will multiply, forming metastases, and in this case we are already talking about the third and fourth stages of cancer, — he noted.

The doctor advises to pay attention to the condition in which a person wakes up in the morning.

Sore throat. If a sore throat lasts longer than two weeks without a tendency to improve, this can be a dangerous signal. It can be easily confused with a cold.

— In the early stages, the symptoms of throat cancer are easily confused with the symptoms of a cold, but acute respiratory infections rarely last longer than a week. If the sore throat, cough, and hoarseness do not go away within two to three weeks, you should consult an oncologist, the doctor warned.

Cough. In the case of lung cancer, there is a characteristic symptom that can indicate lung cancer – a long and exhausting cough. You should be alert if it does not pass within three weeks and does not allow you to fall asleep at night. Such a cough can be provoked by hyperreactivity of the lungs and signals damage to their structure.

Constant fatigue. Does not go away even with full, regular rest. Sensitivity and inflammation of the lymph nodes are possible. Inattentiveness, inability to concentrate, depression appears. Constant fatigue can be due to any form of cancer and is associated with tumor development.

Night sweats. Night sweats can be an early symptom of leukemia, lymphoma, bone and liver cancer. This is due to changes in the hormonal background. Sweating at night does not necessarily mean that a person has cancer.
