Physical examination found 5 kinds of diseases? Take it easy, don't worry about it

Due to various reasons such as food safety and environmental deterioration, modern people are more and more afraid of getting sick. Once they find out what is wrong with their body during the physical examination, they will immediately become worried - is the disease serious? Will it turn into cancer? Should I have surgery or take medicine? At the same time, there will also be some people who have a better knowledge of diseases and health, and comfort them: "It's okay, this disease is a minor disease, and there is no need to treat it!"

So, what are the common diseases that are "minor diseases"? Do these diseases really need no treatment?

1. You don't need to worry too much about these "minor illnesses"

2. Cervical erosion, not really "erosion"

Cervical erosion is a "frequent visitor" for women during physical examination, mainly because the word "erosion" scares many people. Even some uninformed people will have a relationship with "unclean private life" once they hear that a woman suffers from cervical erosion. Therefore, many women are not only afraid of the disease when they see it, but also have low self-esteem and dare not take the initiative to check and treat.

In fact, cervical erosion is not so terrible, but in the past, people did not understand the disease and took it as "erosion". With the development of medical technology, it has now been renamed "cervical columnar ectopic". As we can see from the name, this is actually a normal physiological phenomenon of women, which is related to the structure and growth and development of female organs, and has little to do with the so-called "private life". Most adult women will have this symptom. Therefore, if the physical examination shows "cervical erosion", there is no need to be too afraid, let alone inferiority, it is actually just a very common symptom.

2. Premature heart beat, not necessarily heart disease

Once you see the word heart, many people will start to get nervous. After all, heart disease is not a joke. Our heart beating is actually like a piece of music. It will beat at a uniform speed according to the established rhythm and regularity. If there is a phenomenon of "beating" for various reasons, it is called premature heart beat.

Premature heart beats are often manifested as irregular heartbeats such as the heart suddenly beats twice in a row or one beat too hard or one beat less. But in general, there are many reasons for this disease, such as staying up late, emotional, drugs, etc. It is not necessarily a heart disease, so there is no need to be too afraid.

3. Breast hyperplasia, mostly benign lesions

Breast hyperplasia sounds like a partial serious disease, but in fact it is neither an inflammation nor a tumor disease. Refers to women who find breast nodules or lumps during self-examination, or have unexplained pain symptoms. The disease is mostly a benign disease, mainly caused by mood, stress, irregular life, etc. Therefore, no special treatment is required, and it is generally relieved by adjusting diet, sleep, mentality, exercise, etc. in daily life. .

4. Thyroid nodules, 95% of which are benign

Many people directly associate thyroid cancer when they see themselves diagnosed with thyroid nodules, but this is actually too stressful. Clinical data shows that 95% of thyroid nodules are benign lesions, and the patients themselves will not have obvious symptoms. In addition, thyroid nodules under 1cm generally do not need treatment, while other benign nodules are often prescribed by doctors and take medicine on time. Gradually recover and shrink.

5. Liver cysts, most do not need to be treated

Liver cysts are actually called congenital liver cysts, which are congenital diseases that appear in the human body during embryonic development. To put it simply, blisters grow on the liver, making the surface of the liver no longer smooth. Liver cysts vary in number and volume, and most of them do not develop malignant lesions and grow very slowly. Therefore, most asymptomatic liver cysts do not require treatment and are less likely to become malignant. As long as you do a regular review, you can avoid the stimulation of life and diet.

Cysts vary widely in size, ranging from a small diameter like a needle tip to a large one like a baby's head. But it is more common in a few millimeters to several centimeters. The number of cysts can be an isolated one or multiple. The internal structure can be "single room" or "suite". There will also be fluid in the sac. The symptoms and hazards of liver cysts are related to the size, location, duration of the disease, whether it is impacted by external force, and whether there is infection in the cyst. Smaller hepatic cysts are often asymptomatic or have only mild upper abdominal discomfort; smaller cysts do not require treatment. Large or obvious symptoms can be treated by drawing fluid and injecting alcohol under the guidance of B-ultrasound. This method is safe and has good curative effect.

2. Although the "minor illness" is small, it may also have risks

Although the above diseases are relatively minor, there is no need to rush to treat them, but everyone should not relax because of this. In the following situations, you must check them regularly.

1. Cervical erosion - beware of cancer

Generally speaking, women will have varying degrees of cervical columnar heterotopia in adulthood, and this symptom will also worsen during pregnancy, but it usually recovers naturally with the end of childbirth. However, if it has not been recovered for a long time, microwave therapy should also be performed; and if women have been diagnosed with cervical columnar ectopic for a long time, they should also go to the hospital regularly for TCT and HPV testing to prevent cancer.

2. Premature heart beats - severe or can lead to sudden death

Physician Xu said that the harm of premature beats varies from mild to severe, especially when patients with coronary heart disease and angina pectoris have premature beats, which can lead to serious arrhythmias. If atrial premature beats occur, there is also the risk of sudden death. Therefore, if the phenomenon of premature beats occurs, it is best not to ignore it, and go to the hospital for examination in time to exclude serious risks.

3. Breast hyperplasia - can be complicated by breast cancer

Dr. Zhang, director of the Breast Center of the Cancer Hospital, said that although most breast hyperplasias are benign lesions, there is also the possibility of concurrent breast cancer. Therefore, if women suspect the possibility of breast hyperplasia during self-examination, they should go to the hospital in time to diagnose and exclude the risk of malignant tumors, and develop the habit of regular inspections.

4. Thyroid nodules - there is still the possibility of malignancy

Although 95% of thyroid nodules are benign, there is still a 5% chance of being malignant. In addition, as the thyroid nodules gradually increase, they may also compress the esophagus and trachea, and eventually become malignant, leading to blindness and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, patients who are diagnosed with thyroid nodules should also do regular follow-up examinations, and if the patient has symptoms such as dysphagia and breathing obstruction, whether it is a benign nodule or not, he should go to the hospital for relevant surgical treatment in time.

5. Liver Cysts - Beware of Unexpected Situations

When a liver cyst is diagnosed, although most liver cysts do not become cancerous, there are two unexpected situations that need to be vigilant: one is misdiagnosis, and cyst-like liver cancer is misdiagnosed as a liver cyst; Long, nodular cyst walls and other conditions that may be liver cancer. In addition, if the cyst is large or the symptoms are more obvious, it is still necessary to go to the hospital for treatment such as fluid extraction in time to prevent the rupture of the cyst and infection and other complications.

Others include relatively mild fatty liver, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, etc., as well as some gastrointestinal diseases with mild symptoms, etc., even if diagnosed, there is no need to worry too much. However, it is also important not to ignore the treatment because it is a "minor illness", or to follow the doctor's instructions, to have regular inspections, and to actively carry out lifestyle, diet and exercise conditioning to relieve symptoms. And once the symptoms worsen, you should go to the hospital for related treatment in time.
