Back pain is one of the most ignorant symptoms, as many link it to fatigue or age, but Dr. Cubes made it clear that persistent or deep pain in the lower back or hips, especially if it is not related to movement or does not improve with physical therapy, may be a sign of a cancer tumor, and the risk of this symptom increases if it is accompanied by an unjustified loss of weight or blood in the urine or stool or weakness and numbness in the ends.
２- Unjustified fatigue
Everyone feels exhausted from time to time, but the continuation of fatigue for long periods even after getting enough rest must be raised the alarm.
Dr. Kubis said that constant fatigue may be caused by the consumption of cancer cells of the body’s nutrients and blood energy, which gradually weakens the body. The importance of seeing a doctor increases if this fatigue is accompanied by other symptoms such as fever, persistent pain or weight loss.
３- Sudden and unjustified weight loss
Many believe that losing weight is positive, but if it occurs without following a diet or extensive exercise, it calls for anxiety, and Dr. Cubes explained that unjustified weight loss may be associated with different types of cancer, the most prominent of which is pancreatic, stomach, esophagus and lung cancer, where cancer cells consume the energy of the body abnormally, however, experts indicate that sudden weight loss may also be associated with other reasons such as tension Thyroid disorders, so you should consult a doctor to determine the cause precisely.
４- Continuous throat pain
Sore throat pain is often attributed to simple infections or colds, but the continuation of the pain for more than three weeks requires a doctor’s review, and according to Dr. Cubes, the pain of the continuous throat, especially if it is accompanied by hoarseness, difficulty swallowing, changes in sound or the appearance of a block in the neck, may be an early indication of sore throat cancer.
Also, the presence of chronic cough, ear pain, or unjustified weight loss increases the possibility of its association with a serious condition.
Prevention methods
Experts stressed that these four symptoms are persistent back pain, chronic fatigue, unjustified weight loss, and long -term throat pain – it does not necessarily mean the presence of cancer, but they are warning signs that should not be ignored.
Early detection remains the strongest weapon in the face of cancer, as it gives the patient wider therapeutic options and greater opportunities for recovery,
According to Dr. Cubes, men’s awareness of these signs and their review of doctors when noticing can make a big difference in saving lives, and prevents the disease and its advanced stages that are difficult to treat.
