Does flatting stool necessarily mean intestinal cancer?

Flat stool is not necessarily intestinal cancer. There are generally no symptoms or obvious symptoms in the early stage of intestinal cancer, only digestive dysfunction or occult blood in stool. With the development of the tumor, the symptoms are gradually aggravated, showing changes in stool habits and characteristics, including thinning and increasing stool frequency, alternating constipation and diarrhea, abdominal pain, bloody stool with naked eyes, abdominal mass and so on.

Even intestinal obstruction, systemic symptoms such as anemia, emaciation, fever and so on. If the above symptoms appear, you should go to the hospital in time. Usually pay attention to food hygiene, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, keep your abdomen warm, fast cold, greasy, spicy and irritating food, and pay more attention to rest.

Intestinal cancer generally refers to colorectal cancer. Flat stool is not necessarily caused by colorectal cancer, but may also be caused by hemorrhoids, enteritis, polyps, or anal sphincter dysfunction. If you want to determine whether it is intestinal cancer, you can go to the hospital for anal finger examination, and if necessary, do anoscopy, sigmoidoscopy or fibercolonoscopy.

Colorectal cancer is one of the common digestive tract malignant tumors, including colon cancer and rectal cancer. Flat stool is not necessarily colorectal cancer. For example, in patients with severe hemorrhoids, the anus may be obstructed, and the stool discharged at this time will form a flat. In addition, recurrent enteritis, anal sphincter dysfunction and other intestinal diseases may also lead to flat stool. If there are symptoms such as bloody stool, changes in stool habits and traits, emaciation, anemia and malnutrition. You should be alert to the possibility of the above-mentioned intestinal diseases and suggest going to the hospital for a definite diagnosis in time. If you are diagnosed with colorectal cancer, you should start treatment as soon as possible. Surgical resection is the main treatment for colorectal cancer. Combined with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, the curative effect can be improved to some extent. At present, neoadjuvant therapy (preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy) has been carried out in clinic, aiming at improving the surgical resection rate and anus preservation rate, reducing the risk of local recurrence and prolonging the disease-free survival of patients, but the indications need to be mastered.
