CANCER
“Indonesia riches of anti-cancer herba even richer than China,
And better quality. But why the incidene of cancer in Indonesia is higher
than China? Because Indonesia people love to eat the fried foods..”
(Prof. Dr. Li Peiwen, a Cancer Specialist and Senior Chinese Tradisional Medicine)
What Is CANCER?
Cancer is an abnormal protusion or growth that can accur on any parts
of the body. Each lump is hard, painless, and grow slowly on one side of
the body. The disease is dangerous and often intensive surgical/
medical surgery.
Cancer is the growth od tissue cells are not normal. Rapidly growing, uncontrolled, and will continue to divided, then infiltrate the surrounding tissues (invasive) and continues to spread through the connective tissue, blood, and invade the organs such as the spine humans. Growth of tissue cells are growing ang urgent so damaged tissue. This is called a malignant tumor.
Is It Just A Single Type of Cancer??
Well, the cancer is not only one but it has a lot types. Here comes a variety of cancers based on the research of doctors :
1. Brain Cancer
The sign of brain cancer are headaches are extremely reduced in the morning and at midday, epilepsy, weakness, numbness in the arms and legs, difficulty walking, drowsiness, changes abnormal vision, personality changes, changes in memory, it’s difficult to speak.
2. Oral Cancer
There are sores on the mouth, tongue, and gums that do not heal
3. Throat Cancer
Continous coughing, hoarseness or raspy
4. Lung Cancer
Cough continue-again, bloody sputum, pain the chest
5. Berast Cancer
A lump, thickening of the skin, changes the shape, itchings, redness, pain is unpredictable to lactation or menstruation.
6. Digestive Tract Cancer
The presence of blood in the feces marked with bright red or black, malaise continues-going to the stomach, lump in the abdomen, pain after eating, weight loss.
7. Womb Cancer (Uterus)
Diperiode bleeding-period coming months, the menstrual blood as expenses un usual and incredible pain.
8. Ovarian Cancer (Ovarian)
In the advanced stage before symptoms appear.
9. Colon Cancer
Bleeding in the rectum, blood in the stool, change in the bowel movements (diarrhea persistent or difficult bowel movements).
10. Bladder or Kidney Cancer
The is blood in the urine, pain or burningduring urination, frequency or difficulty uninaring, pain in the bladder.
11. Prostate Cancer
Urine is not smooth, continous pain the the back waist, penis and upper thigh.
12. Scrotal Cancer/ Testis
A lump in the scrotum, scrotal size reservoirs in sudden enlarged and thickened, pain in the lower abdomen, chest enlarge or become soft
13. Lymphoma
Enlarge lymph nodes, rubbery, itching, sweating, sleep at night, fever or weight loss for no reason that clear.
14. Leukemia
Pallor, chronic fatigue, weight loss, frequent infection, easily hurt, pain tn bones and joints, nosebleeds.
15. Skin Cancer
Bumps on the skin that resembles a wart (hardened like horn), infection do not heal, spots change color and size, pain in certain areas, changes in the skin color of the spot.
16. Complication
A frequent complication in cancer patients is an infection that is in people with advanced cancer. Infections caused deficiency and substance other nutrition and immune system suppression that often occurs treatment conventional.
Well, those are other types of the cancer. It’s too scary. That’s what to watch out for even now being intensively campaign on cervical cancer that usually attack in women. Beacused based on medical data, 2 women die every minute of it because of that cancer. Uuh, it’s scary, isn’t it?
We want to know anyway. Why it happened?
All the diseases have a cause or origin of certain factor, exactly. Well, let’s see what are cancers factors. Probably, here we come.
1. Heredity
Genetic factors cause some families have a higer risk of developing certain cancer when compared with other families. The type of cancer is likely in heretided in families of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, skin cancer, and colon cancer A.
For example : a woman’s risk for cancer increased 1,5 until 3 times if mother or sister had breast cancer.
2. Enviroment Factors
Some activities, without realizing it, inviting the risk of cancer growth
a. Smoke, increase the risk of lung cancer, mouth larynx (vocal cord), and bladder
b. Ultraviolet rays from the sun
c. Lionizing radiation in X-ray beam generated from nuclear power plants and atomic bombs. Example, survivors of the atomic bombs on Hirosima and Nagasaki in World Wares II, at high risk of cancer of blood cells, such as leukemia.
3. Food factors which contain chemicals
Carefully choose the food. Is not all safe. Actually, some food could bring letter of invitation to cancer in order to settle on our bodies.
Write down some of the following foods :
a. Smoked and pickled foods (in pickled form) increase the risk of gastric cancer
b. Drinks which contain alcohol cause higher risk for esophageal cancer
c. Food dyes
d. Heavy metals such as mercury are often found in contaminated seafood such as selfish, fish, etc
e. A variety food (sweet, flour) are processed in excess
4. Virus
And suspected a virus that can cause cancer, such as papilloma virus (Cervical Cancer).
5. Infection
6. Behavioral Factors
Smoking, eating foods that contain lots of fat and preserved meat, drinking alcohol, having sex early age and frequently sexual at higher risk of getting cancer.
7. Hormonal Imbalance
There is a tendency that an excess estrogen and progesterone deficiency leading to increase risk of breast cancer, cervical cancer. It happens because the hormone estrogen stimulates the growth of cell function that tends to encourage the occurrence of cancer, while progesterone protects the occurrence of excessive cell growth
8. Psychology Factor, emotional
9. Free Radical
The solution of cancer with the medicine way are six points, those are :
1. Operation/ Surgery
Surgery is the procedure of the oldest cancer treatment, and are mostly likely recover, especially for certain types of cancer that has not spread to other body parts. Advance in surgery have made it possible injury and surgery with minimal effect (some have no injuries at all), so that afterwards you can return to normal activities.
2. Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy has been used for cancer treatment since 1950. Given before surgery to reduce the size to be operated on, or after surgery to clean up the remnants of the cancer cells. Sometimes combined with the radiation therapy, sometimes not.
Drug destruction of cancer cells are given in tablet/ pill, injection, or infusion. There is a dosing schedule daily, weekly, or even once a month. How long you will be undergoing chemotherapy and side effect or not, depending on your cancer type of chemotherapy.
3. Radiation
For some types of cancer such us cancer in the neck and head, gland, lung, and Hodgkin’s disease, radiation in the main treatment option. But radiation is also commonly given to other types cancer, either as monotherapy or combination therapy with surgery or chemotherapy.
The effect of local therapy is administered externally or internally. Externally using a specific tool for the firing of radioactive waves toward cancer cells (“rays”), are internal in the form of the radioactive implants are inserted in the area of cancer, or a swallow medications / injections.
4. Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy also called biologic therapy is a type of cancer treatment is relatively new.Nevertheless expected to be developed rapidly and become a mainstay of the doctors in an effort to cure cancer completely.
Not different immunization in general, immunotherapy aimed to boost the immune cells to fight cancer. There are three types of immunotherapy, which is active (cancer vaccines), passive, and adjuvant therapy. In Indonesia immunotherapy is sometimes given together with other types of treatment to obtain optimal results, but not always. Tell your doctor if you want it.
5. Gene Therapy
Gene therapy is done in several ways: (1) replace the defective or missing gene, (2) terminate the employment of genes responsible for the formation of cancer cells, (3) adding a gene that makes cancer cells more easily detected and destroyed by the immune system, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, and (4) stop the work of genes that trigger the creation of new blood vessels in cancerous tissue so that the cancer cells die.
At this time gene therapy has not been used in general, but many clinical trials have been conducted and showed satisfactory results. To broaden just a matter of time.
6. Alternative Medicine
Basically the so-called “alternative medicine” can be classified into one of the above types of treatment, but the lack of adequate medical research lead to treatments which are generally under-recognized traditional medicine is the medical community, therefore simply referred to as “alternative”. About this treatment will be discussed separately.
Well, you should discuss what the most appropriate treatment with your doctor, and start immediately. The sooner you start, the better the results :)
