What's the matter with unexplained emaciation

summary

Can you get pancreatic cancer if you lose weight for unknown reasons? I have a distant relative who is only in his forties this year. In the past three months, he has lost a lot of weight for no reason. He didn't change his diet. He ate as much as before, and he didn't work hard, and he didn't do too much exercise, so he suddenly lost weight, because he had chronic pancreatitis before. I'd like to tell you the reason of this situation, hoping to help you.

What's the matter with unexplained emaciation

First: rapid weight loss of unknown reasons, which is also a very obvious clinical symptom of patients with pancreatic cancer. Although we have this symptom, it does not necessarily mean that the body has this symptom is suffering from pancreatic cancer, but it is suggested that patients should go to the hospital in time to have a check-up, because not only some other cancers have this symptom, in short, once the body appears unexplained rapid weight loss, there are already health problems, which is not optimistic.

Second: in fact, in addition to the above obvious symptoms, patients with pancreatic cancer will also have a series of other symptoms. For example, patients will have upper abdominal discomfort, but it's not clear exactly which part of the pain is? In particular, some patients will feel uncomfortable after eating, often mistaking it as stomach disease.

Third: with the aggravation of the disease, patients will also have back pain, especially in the evening, this kind of pain will aggravate. In fact, the symptoms of pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis are very similar, so some people with chronic pancreatitis often have symptoms, think it is the recurrence of old problems, did not go to the hospital in time, the result delayed treatment.
