Cancer is a malignant disease with a high incidence rate in recent years. On average, nearly 10,000 people are diagnosed with cancer every day!

Cancer can occur in any organ and tissue, and lung cancer, digestive tract cancer, liver cancer, etc. are all cancers with high incidence at present.

These cancers share a common feature. It is almost difficult to detect patients in the early stage, and some patients even have no abnormal manifestations. As the disease continues to develop, symptoms will gradually appear, but at this time, the best opportunity for treatment has long been missed!

The clinical cure rate of advanced cancer is very low, and patients will eventually die under endless pain and suffering. Therefore, there is only one clinical standard for cancer treatment, that is, early detection and early treatment!

Although the pain symptoms in the early stage of cancer are not obvious, the body will also have other reactions, such as the following four symptoms in the legs and feet, you need to be careful that it may be a signal from cancer:

How did the shape of the toes change?

The toes are the most neglected part, but some diseases can be reflected on the toes. For example, lung cancer is one of them. If you have recently suddenly found that the end of the toe is abnormally swollen, thickened and protruding from the skin surface, this may be one of the symptoms of chronic lung disease or a signal of the arrival of lung cancer;

Because when the lung becomes cancerous, it will first reduce its own respiratory function, especially when the cancer blocks the large airway, the patient will have obvious dyspnea, chest tightness, shortness of breath and chest pain. As the end of the limbs, due to the lack of blood oxygen supply, there will be abnormal proliferation, forming clubbing fingers.

abnormal lower extremity edema

The sudden occurrence of lower extremity edema must first rule out the influence of physiological factors, including sedentary, drinking too much water, etc. Generally speaking, physiological edema does not last for a long time and can be relieved by physical activity. However, if the lower extremity has severe edema recently, the rebound is slow when pressed by hand, and the edema lasts for a long time, this may be a manifestation of cancer;

Many cancers can cause edema in the legs, especially liver and cervical cancers. Cancer will not only consume nutrients in the body, but also cause an imbalance of cell osmotic pressure, and water will penetrate into the interstitial space. At the same time, cancer will also compress the nerves and blood vessels of the lower extremities during the developmental stage, eventually leading to persistent edema. The later the cancer, the more obvious the symptoms of edema.

A sudden lump in the leg

Although there are cells in the human body, there may be cancerous changes, but carcinoma in situ in the legs is rare, and most of them are metastatic cancers . Normally, the legs of a healthy person should be smooth. If there is an abnormal mass in the leg recently , it may be a signal of cancer metastasis. For example, lung cancer, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer , etc., may all have bone metastasis, leading to A lump develops in the leg.

Changes in moles on the legs

Moles are the product of pigment accumulation under the skin, which can be divided into two types: congenital and acquired, but no matter what kind of pigmented nevus, as long as it grows, it will not change. If the moles on the legs have changed suddenly recently, such as abnormal growth of more than 1 cm, repeated cracks on the surface, and unclear borders, it may be a signal of mole cancer. It is also called malignant melanoma clinically, which is one of skin cancers.

Although cancer can cause abnormal changes in the legs, this is not a criterion for diagnosing cancer. Other types of disorders can also cause similar leg symptoms. Therefore, when a physical abnormality is found, the first thing to do is not to be afraid, but to actively check, diagnose what is wrong with the body, and then carry out scientific treatment.
