1. Many cancers will cause the belly to get bigger, don’t think it’s just fat

Under normal circumstances, the waist circumference should be <85cm for men and < 80cm, many people think that the increase in waist circumference is caused by obesity.

2. Ascites

Middle and late stage Cancerous ascites is very commoncancerous ascites in patients with cancer, which increases waist circumference as a result of a large amount of fluid flowing into the abdomen. In addition to cancer, liver cirrhosis, renal insufficiency, heart and other related diseases may also cause abnormal abdominal enlargement.

The nevus body is as small as the size of a pin cap, the diameter of the large one can reach more than 1cm, and there will be a slight bulge in the middle.Named for its resemblance to a spider. There are two reasons for the occurrence of spider nevus, physiological and pathological. Physiological spider nevus generally occurs in pregnant women and developing women. They will cause spider nevus to occur because the metabolism of estrogen in the body exceeds the capacity of the liver. Spider moles that appear under these circumstances generally do not require special treatment.

The most important pathological cause is the liver Injury, when liver function is damaged, its normal metabolic capacity will be reduced. Estrogen in the body cannot be inactivated normally, which in turn leads to the formation of spider naevi. After liver function damage, in addition to spider naevi, patients often have symptoms such as fatigue, greasy disgust, and jaundice.

It is worth reminding that the above symptoms are not necessarily all caused by cancer or disease factors, but may also be caused by some other factors. It is recommended to seek medical attention in time after discovering an abnormality, rather than blindly scare yourself.
