Hello everyone, I'm Ma Zi, an oncologist.
Darkening of certain parts of the body may indicate a health risk, which is a potential manifestation of cancer. Cancer doesn't happen overnight, it develops gradually. Therefore, when the following symptoms of darkening appear in the body, it should be taken seriously.
First of all, a black mole may appear on the **. A mole is a benign tumor that may arise from birth or acquire. Most moles grow larger and darker in color, but they don't go away on their own. If the mole grows in size, darkens in color, or even has an abnormality such as infection or melanin ring, it may become cancerous and you need to seek medical attention promptly.
Secondly, a dark complexion can also be a warning. Poor complexion means that there may be problems with the body's organs, such as decreased liver function, endocrine disorders, and a large production of melanin, which changes the color of the body. At the same time, it may be accompanied by symptoms such as loss of appetite, fatigue, and lack of energy. This condition is most likely a precursor to liver cancer and needs to be taken seriously.
Third, the stool is black. After ruling out a normal cause, it may be a gastrointestinal tumor that causes darkening of the stool. Persistent darkening of the stool may indicate bleeding from a gastrointestinal tumor.
In short, once there are abnormal changes, you should seek medical attention in time, conduct relevant examinations, understand your physical condition, and give timely **.
Now, cancer is no longer a terminal disease in our past cognition, but a chronic disease that can be controlled. Let's work together for a healthy life. Oncologist Dr. Ma Zi
