Whether in daily medical work, or in the network of micro-blog in the world, and the response of cancer doctors said: people often ask, my body has a tumor, cancer is not ah? The tumor is cancer?
We are still generally "cancer" and "tumor" is not divided, on the basic concept is still a confused account, the consequences would either cause unnecessary panic (ignorance of trouble, the tumor, or when cancer) delayed disease (the fancy, when the cancer tumor).
Tumor prevention and treatment, from the beginning of understanding cancer, from the basic concept of sorting out, or never clear, always live in confusion.
For "cancer is what" this problem, ordinary people seem to know so little, but not completely understand, Sidongfeidong, seriously asked, simply say why, don't know what cancer is what stuff, otherwise it will not talk about cancer is pale. People have a great fear of something, either too understand it, know it's scary, or didn't understand it, the basic lack of awareness, people always respect or fear of the unknown, of course, may also be because of a lack of understanding, so it is not afraid, the so-called "mozhizhemowei". The end result is that what should be feared is not afraid, but what is not to be feared is at random frightened, which is the cause of ignorance (lack of relevant knowledge)!
It is these two factors that cause cancer to be pale. On the one hand, cancer is really a fearful aspect, and on the other hand, it is because people lack the basic understanding of cancer. The problem is that people tend to know nothing about cancer, but they don't know that cancer is not as scary as it seems.
So what exactly is cancer? Cancer, in fact, is a popular folk talk, it actually refers to all the malignant tumors, the English name is cancer (cancer). The word cancer is the original meaning of "crab", we all know that the crab like: there are many feet and claws, to extend around the rampant activities, seems to run amuck aggressive way, which used to mean "cancer" is the appropriate image again however.
Just now mentioned that "cancer" refers to all the "malignant tumors", and what does "tumor" mean? Your doctor will explain to you that the new biological tumor formation is the human body in all kinds of tumorigenic factors under the action of the (new life, is the new thing, more performance for the mass, mass), in fact, saidpopular, is in the body out of the new long non normal East West. Like the alien elements in adverse environment under long out of the. People often get long lumps and bumps into a tumor, in most cases, this argument is right, because the majority of tumors manifested as masses of the form, but not to, because the tumor sometimes does not necessarily form a packet block visible, such as leukemia (also known as blood cancer), and the package may not necessarily block tumor, such as inflammation may also form inflammatory mass, trauma may also form hematoma or edema mass, which of course can not be counted as a tumor.
In addition, there is a more contact with each other is the term "space occupying lesions", generally in the CT, MRI and other imaging examination reports will see "XX space occupying lesions" words. "Lesions" is a "tumor" covers a broader concept, literally can know it refers to something extra, occupy the body originally a part, is it in somebody's position, it should not exist, this thing can be the tumor (benign tumor or malignant tumor are possible), in fact many cases finally diagnosed is indeed a tumor, but also may not be the tumor, such as inflammatory mass, abscess inflammation, bleeding after the formation of hematoma, all of them can be regarded as "lesions". But can not be regarded as tumor. Therefore, the "lesions" is a description of the final words, what must be further check to clear the essence, it is not a disease, you can't say a person has "occupying disease".
"Tumor", according to the nature of it can be further divided into benign tumors and malignant tumors, there is a boundary between the so-called "borderline tumors" (the morphology and biological behavior between between benign and malignant tumors).
Benign tumor, literally can know it is a benign disease, benign course is relatively good, at least not bad, the growth rate is slow, generally in the local growth to outside expansive growth, usually not erosion and destruction of adjacent organs, also not to a spread, so its harm is relatively small, no serious consequences. But it should be noted that, although the benign tumor is healthy, but if it looks great, may oppress adjacent organs and affect the oppressed tissues and organs, may also bring bad consequences, especially if it is long in the key parts of the body, such as long in the intestines may can lead to intestinal obstruction, such as long in the head. It may lead to serious consequences, and even life-threatening, because the head space is limited, although the benign tumor itself is not much harmful, but it may be oppressive important central parts, and we all know that the head of the central nervous system is the body duct command may, oppression
