Mesothelioma and Ways To Defeat It

 A Brief definition about Mesothelioma and Ways To Defeat It ?

ASBESTOS A REASON ?

Let's do a research about Mesothelioma ! 

Mesothelioma is a type of cancer that affects the mesothelioma mesothelial cells make up the tissue that covers the lungs and the organs inside the abdomen.

9 out of 10 cases of mesothelioma are thought to be caused by exposure to asbestos.

What ? ASBESTOS A REASON FOR CAUSING MESOTHELIOMA ??

Asbestos is a natural mineral which was still widely used in construction until the 1990s asbestos consists of tiny fibers which when breezed in can work their way into and irritate the lung pleura as a consequence of this gene mutations in the normal healthy mesothelial cells can occur resulting in formation and growth of the cancer.

Around 1 in 4 cases of mesothelioma occur in their abdomen in the sheet of tissue that covers the internal organs this tissue is called the peritoneum and so this form of the cancer is called peritoneal mesothelioma.

What are the Symptoms and causes for peritoneal mesothelioma ? 

                              

   1.The usual symptoms of peritoneal mesothelioma could be an expanding abdomen

   2. Spending waistline tightness in the belly

   3. Some abdominal pain feeling of fullness 

   4. Some regurgitation 

   5. Weight loss maybe an elevated white blood count elevated platelets again nonspecific hard to diagnose.

Around 3 & 4 cases of mesothelioma begin in the chest and the two protective sheets of tissue that cover the lungs these sheets are called the pleura and so this type of cancer is called pleural mesothelioma.

What are the Symptoms and causes for Pleura mesothelioma ?

   1.This can cause shortness of breath, 

   2. Chest pains sometimes severe,

   3. a long lasting cough and tiredness. 

   4. can present with a cloth with a tightness in their chest with chest pain with elevated temperatures ,

   5. weight loss with loss of appetite and again similar to so many other cancers .

What do people think about Mesothelioma is false ?

What do people think about that statement true is false. They all just think about that it's a lung cancer so the whole statement is wrong it's not common and it's not lung cancer.

I just wanted to highlight this section here common cancer types mesothelioma is not on this list okay so it is not common at all so we see about 3,000 cases of mesothelioma in this country each year just to put it in reference we see 224,000 new cases of lung cancer each year. so in my opening question i established that mesothelioma is not lung cancer ok it's not lung cancer the cells of origin for mesothelioma are actually nice affiliate cells and they are found throughout the body.

Hopefully I've clarified all of this for all of us about mesothelioma.

INTERESTING FACT ABOUT LUNGS :

Yawning helps us to breathe more oxygen into our lungs it is an involuntary process accompanied by a long inspiration or inhalation this process occurs when the brain cells send a message as it senses the shortage of oxygen and this message tricks our sensory system to take a long deep breath or a yawn.
