In the process of rectal cancer, the decline of intestinal function can lead to various adverse symptoms in the patient's body. Once there is a cancerous signal, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible. Through the examination, the location and severity of the cancer can be determined, and a detailed treatment plan can be formulated.
Otherwise, rectal cancer will continue to develop and life and health will be threatened. Many people ignore the signal after it is generated, and the condition will get worse if it is delayed. So, what are the special manifestations of the body that indicate that a serious disease has occurred in the intestine?
- Feeling that bowel movements are not clean
During the onset of rectal cancer, physical health is threatened, and many patients feel that bowel movements are always unclean. This special phenomenon is related to intestinal cancer. In the process of the onset of rectal cancer, the function of the intestines declines, and there may be tenesmus, which will make the patient always feel that the bowel movement is not clean.
If this situation lasts for a long time, and this manifestation occurs repeatedly, it is best to go to the hospital for examination when the cause is unknown, in order to determine whether there is a local tumor. If it is a malignant tumor, treatment measures should be taken to actively improve it.
- There is pus and blood in the stool
Pus and blood in the stool during excretion may be a signal of rectal cancer growth. In the process of intestinal function decline, the local mucosa is damaged, some pus may be discharged, and mucous stools are more likely to occur, and the tumor itself is fragile, and pus and blood stools will form after rupture and bleeding.
Once there are these special physical changes, they should be checked in time, otherwise the local lesions will continue to aggravate, and the difficulty of treatment will increase.
- Alternating constipation and diarrhea
There are always signs of constipation or diarrhea, and rectal cancer needs to be suspected. The rectum is a part of the digestive system. When the health is threatened in the process of cancer, the body will have obvious signals. Many people will suffer from diarrhea after the disease is threatened with impaired digestive function.
If the tumor volume gradually increases without being noticed, intestinal obstruction is prone to occur. After the impact, the excretion of feces is blocked, and the more obvious feature is diarrhea and constipation alternately. With these special defecation phenomena, reasonable treatment measures should be taken for rectal cancer.
- Unexplained weight loss
The impact of rectal cancer is obvious, and many patients will experience significant weight loss during the onset. For the change of weight loss in a short period of time, it is best to go to the hospital for a detailed physical examination, which may be caused by certain digestive system diseases.
In the process of rectal cancer, the digestive function declines, the digestion of food is affected, and the nutrients cannot be absorbed and utilized by the human body. The main feature is the weight loss in a short time and the feeling of malnutrition. The occurrence of this situation should not be taken lightly. It is necessary to clarify the type of disease before symptomatic treatment can prevent rectal cancer from becoming more serious.
