Preliminary symptoms of esophageal cancer

First: choking when swallowing food is the most common symptom. Some patients can even recall clearly when it first happened. These symptoms can disappear automatically without treatment, and reappear after a few days or months, and the frequency and degree of choking gradually increase.

Second: the food goes down slowly and has a sense of retention. When the food passes through the esophagus, the patient does not feel as smooth as before. The food goes down slowly and even stops at some place. This feeling has nothing to do with the nature of the food, and sometimes it occurs when drinking water.   

Third: retrosternal pain and esophageal pain when swallowing are also more common. What are the symptoms of esophageal cancer in the elderly? When eating, there is pain behind the sternum or esophagus, such as burning, needling, pulling or rubbing. When swallowing rough or hot food in large mouthfuls, the pain is aggravated, while when swallowing thin or warm or cold food in small mouthfuls, the pain is lighter. The location of pain is generally higher than the actual location of long cancer. Cancer of the lower esophagus, pain can occur in the upper abdomen.
