Stomach cancer is a rare form of cancer, but it's important to be aware of the signs and symptoms to look out for, states Daily Express.
What symptoms while eating can alert you
A symptom that can be alarming is feeling unusually full after a few bites of food. This may be a sign of stomach cancer, which is a less common but serious condition. A quick feeling of fullness when eating is a sign that should not be ignored.
It is advisable to consult a doctor to rule out any potential health problems, including cancer. Neglecting such symptoms can lead to malnutrition and unintentional weight loss.
Other symptoms of stomach cancer
The early symptoms of stomach cancer can be misleading, often resembling less severe conditions, making early diagnosis difficult.
Common early indicators include unexpected weight loss and unexplained abdominal or back pain.
Some of the early signs to look out for include
- persistent indigestion
- choking and frequent burping
- heartburn
- very quick feeling of fullness while eating
- feeling of bloating after eating
- nausea
- pain in the abdomen or sternum
- difficulty swallowing (dysphagia)
- vomiting (vomit may contain blood streaks), although in the early stages it is rare
