Taiwanese gastroenterologist Xiao Dunren once shared in the program “Doctors Are Hot” that his teacher was a famous doctor in the Department of Hepatobiliary Gastroenterology. Because the consultation time is very long, the famous doctor is used to sitting down to see patients for 7 or 8 hours, during which he only eats peanuts to satisfy his hunger. As a result, at the age of 54, he felt a strange sensation in his upper right abdomen. An ultrasound revealed a tumor in his liver that had ruptured and bled, and he was eventually diagnosed with liver cancer.
Xiao Dunren pointed out that liver diseases are mainly divided into three categories. The first is viral hepatitis such as hepatitis A and B; the second is chemical hepatitis caused by drinking alcohol, taking medicine, aflatoxin, etc.; and the last is metabolic hepatitis caused by fatty liver. Sexual liver disease. Take his teacher as an example. He originally had hepatitis B. Although he had regular blood tests and his liver index was normal, he forgot to do an ultrasound until he felt unwell and the tumor had grown very large.
In addition, if peanuts are stored for too long in an environment with a temperature exceeding 12 degrees Celsius, they will produce aflatoxin. Therefore, teachers eat peanuts for a long time to satisfy their hunger and ingest too much aflatoxin. The combination of the two will greatly increase the chance of tumor growth.
Liver cancer is listed as the third cancer killer in Hong Kong. Because there are no obvious symptoms in the early stage of the disease, more than 70% of adults are inoperable when diagnosed, and 40% of them are in the late stage. The survival rate in the past was only 3 months to half a year, so it is also known as “King” of Cancer”.
