Mesothelioma: Signs and Symptoms administrator 2 vistas • 2 años hace

Occupational medicine specialist Dr. Jacqueline Moline shares that for most people who have mesothelioma the biggest sign is shortness of breath, but it’s gradual. They may have pains when they take deep breaths, and or have a persistent cough. If you are experiencing any of those symptoms it could be a sign of mesothelioma or another type of lung cancer. Trial lawyer Mark Lanier shares that you should check the ingredients of products before you purchase them and if you see talc or talcum powder you should stay away.

Mesothelioma is a type of cancer that develops from the thin layer of tissue that covers many of the internal organs (known as the mesothelium). The most common area affected is the lining of the lungs and chest wall. Less commonly the lining of the abdomen and rarely the sac surrounding the heart,or the sac surrounding the testis may be affected. Signs and symptoms of mesothelioma may include shortness of breath due to fluid around the lung, a swollen abdomen, chest wall pain, cough, feeling tired, and weight loss. These symptoms typically come on slowly.

More than 80% of mesothelioma cases are caused by exposure to asbestos. The greater the exposure the greater the risk. As of 2013, about 125 million people worldwide have been exposed to asbestos at work. High rates of disease occur in people who mine asbestos, produce products from asbestos, work with asbestos products, live with asbestos workers, or work in buildings containing asbestos.Asbestos exposure and the onset of cancer are generally separated by about 40 years.Washing the clothing of someone who worked with asbestos also increases the risk.Other risk factors include genetics and infection with the simian virus 40.The diagnosis may be suspected based on chest X-ray and CT scan findings, and is confirmed by either examining fluid produced by the cancer or by a tissue biopsy of the cancer.
