How long can advanced sigmoid colon cancer live

Symptom 1: sigmoid colon cancer is very serious. It is a malignant tumor of the digestive tract. It needs to be found as soon as possible and treated in time, so as to improve the survival rate of patients. At the earliest stage, there may be symptoms such as abdominal distension, and then there will be changes in defecation habits. Later, there will be symptoms such as mucopurulent bloody stool.

Symptom 2: with the development of the patient's condition, due to tumor ulceration, blood loss and toxin absorption, it can often lead to anemia, edema and other symptoms of sigmoid colon cancer. During physical examination, patients can also see abdominal bulge, abdominal mass, and hear strong bowel sounds.

Symptom 3: when patients with sigmoid colon cancer reach the advanced stage, the tumor invasion is more serious, and the mass can be fixed. If patients have severe bleeding, intestinal obstruction, and canceration, surgery is recommended for relevant treatment. At the same time, attention should be paid to balanced diet, eating less and more meals, so as to avoid too much pressure on the intestinal tract.
