Stomach Cancer treatment in Cuauhtémoc

Stomach cancer, also called gastric cancer, is an abnormal growth of cells in the tissue that lines the stomach. Like many digestive conditions, it may give few signs in its early stages.

Symptoms that may appear: discomfort or burning in the upper abdomen, feeling full early, loss of appetite, or persistent changes in digestion.

When should you see a doctor? An evaluation is advisable when there are digestive symptoms that do not resolve, especially if they are accompanied by unexplained weight loss.

Which specialist treats it? The gastroenterologist studies the digestive system and, depending on the case, the oncologist and the general surgeon are involved. Don't ignore persistent discomfort: discussing it with a professional makes it possible to clarify its cause in time.
