Are tumors the same thing as cancer? The doctor made it clear to you in two ways at once

Recently received a fan message backstage: "I am only 23 years old this year, was checked out of mammary fibroids, I am not going to die, feel the world is about to collapse..." Many people like this fan, think that the tumor is cancer, talk about cancer color change, but in fact there is a fundamental difference between the two.
1. Mammoma is not a cancer mammary fibroid is a benign tumor, composed of a mixture of gland epithelitis and fibrous tissue, mostly in young women, most of which are related to the imbalance of sex hormone levels in the body, caused by endocrine disorders, gland epithelitis or fibrous epithelia oversensitivity to estrogen.
This tumor is mostly in the upper part of the breast, generally round or egg round, the diameter of the tumor is more than 1 to 3 cm, usually no obvious symptoms, most patients will only swim, bathe and so on when touching painless lumps, a small number of patients during menstruation have varying degrees of swelling, hidden pain.
mammary fibroids generally grow slowly, only in a very small number of adolescent women in a short period of time will grow rapidly, diameter up to 8-10 cm, for large fibroids, but still a benign tumor, do not panic too much.
10 per cent of patients and 50 per cent of patients were able to subside on their own.
addition, the cancer rate of this tumor is only 0.12%-0.3%, rarely developed into breast cancer, especially simple mammary fibroids, the relative complex breast fibroid cancer risk will be a little higher.
II, the detection of tumors≠ the end of the world 1. Malignant tumor is the cancer tumor is actually divided into benign and malignant, generally benign tumor will be called tumor, malignant tumor is called cancer.
damage to the body is relatively small, unless born in an important area so that the compression of tissue organs, and benign tumors will only grow up will not spread, most will not cause serious complications, cause patient death and so on.
And malignant tumors are devastating to the body, cancer cells will spread and metastasize, will excrete toxic substances, plunder the nutrition of normal cells, damage the primary organs, compress surrounding tissues and organs, reduce the body's immunity, so that patients cause systemic consumption symptoms, gradually aggravate the damage to patients, and finally, serious complications, multi-organ failure, resulting in patient death.
2. The treatment means are not the same benign tumor cure possibility is much longer than malignant tumor, the general treatment is less difficult, just remove the tumor, prevent recurrence can be.
And the treatment of malignant tumors is difficult, many cancer patients after surgery to remove, there is still the possibility of cancer cell proliferation, so even if the root surgery, or can not be taken lightly, to go to the hospital regularly to check, regularly scheduled chemotherapy surgery, to prevent the spread of cancer cells may.
3, the other 3 benign tumors 1. Hemangioma is a benign tumor, some hemangiomas can subside on their own, if there is no way to subside and grow in more conspicuous areas, it is recommended that the earlier treatment is better, it is best to see a child when found.
most children with hemangiomas do not behave at birth, and it is only a few weeks before parents discover that hemangiomas tend to enter a rapid proliferation period of about 3-6 months.
Although most hemangiomas do not have serious complications, but there may be hemangioma subsidence, local depression and other conditions, affecting aesthetics, according to the specific situation to choose drug treatment, laser treatment, surgical treatment.
2. Renal dysma renal reconstruction tumor is a common renal benign tumor, mostly in middle-age women, also known as renal hemangioma, most patients have no obvious symptoms, can be found during the physical examination.
some patients with larger tumors, can feel a lump in the abdomen, if the tumor compressed to the stomach, the twelve-fingered intestine and other organs, may continue constipation, abdominal pain, fullness and so on.
some patients have more blood vessels in the tumor, may appear rupture and bleeding, once the bleeding if the bleeding is not timely, it may be life-threatening.
treatment of renal mismactory is mainly renal mismactory, in a more thorough removal of lesions at the same time, to retain normal renal tissue function, the other is kidney excision, selective arterial embolism, ablation treatment.
3. Uterine fibroids occur more often in women aged 30-50 years, are the most common gynecological benign tumors, most can atrophy or subside after menoageal, most uterine fibroid patients do not have obvious symptoms, if fibroids are located in the uterine fibroids Inter-wall or mucous membrane, can appear menstrual extension and menstrual volume increased, if fibroid compression to the bladder, can cause urination, urination frequency, urination difficulties, etc. , if compressed to the rectum, can cause constipation, detocation and so on.
that asymptomatic uterine fibroids do not require treatment and can be reviewed every 3 to 6 months.
if the appearance of uterine fibroids leads to multiple secondary anemia, abdominal pain, bladder or rectum and other compression symptoms, then undergo surgical treatment.
All in all, not all tumors are cancer, find out the tumor need not be too panic, first ask the doctor clearly;
most important thing is to develop good habits, regular medical check-ups, in the emergence of disease when the timely annihilation.
