The body communicates with us every day. On a daily level, in fact, our body sends us signals that can help us understand our state of health. And this happens on any kind of forehead. For example, in our previous article “They are practically ignored and little known symptoms but they could indicate a silent type of tumor”, we had just expressed the same concept. And sometimes we can also confuse the kind of message our body wants to send us. And this is perfectly visible in our article “Many think it is caused by hemorrhoids but instead it could be the symptoms of a hidden tumor”. In short, this makes us understand that we should be extremely attentive and open to listening. And in today’s article we want to explain exactly the same thing.
Fatigue and abdominal pain could be symptoms of this most common cancer over the age of 50
In this article the focus will be on gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Fortunately, these are rather rare tumors, possible to be found especially after the age of 50. But in any case, being aware of their existence, it is right to take all the necessary precautions and understand better what we are talking about. These are cancers that primarily affect the stomach, but can also occur in other parts of the body. Among these, for example, we just need to mention the colon, the esophagus or the duodenum. And you have to know how to recognize this type of problem. For example, fatigue and abdominal pain could be symptoms of this most common cancer over the age of 50.
Recognize gastrointestinal stromal tumors and know what the symptoms are to be more aware
As explained by the AIRC, there are several symptoms that could point to a problem of this type. Unfortunately, these do not manifest themselves in the initial stage, but later on. In addition to those just mentioned, we can find others. For example, we may experience a strong loss of appetite and especially of body weight. Furthermore, we may often find ourselves dealing with nausea and similar situations. Also, we should see blood from the rectum, for example, or in the vomit if that happens.
Therefore, the signs that could indicate such a situation are really many. And only if we were to find them all, could we then think of such an advanced and delicate situation. If, on the other hand, we were to notice only a few, the reason could be completely different. And talking to your doctor will be, as in every occasion, the right and most suitable choice. In fact, only he will be able to give us concrete answers to our questions, explaining the situation exactly.
