Cancer susceptibility today is exacerbated by many adverse lifestyle factors, including lack of sleep, smoking, alcohol abuse, and high levels of everyday stress. According to MedikForum, one of the most common types of cancer in recent years is pancreatic cancer.
According to oncologist Ivan Karasev, pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive. The expert noted that the presence of such problems as diabetes, pancreatitis in a person increases the risk of getting this type of cancer. One of the symptoms of pancreatic cancer can be a change in skin color. In particular, it acquires an icteric hue.
As the doctor explained, yellowing of the skin may indicate a tumor that has arisen in the head of the gland. Karasev clarified that such a sign – jaundice or, conversely, excessive pallor of the skin and sclera – indicates the appearance of a serious problem in the body.
In addition, discoloration of the skin can be a symptom of bowel cancer. In his case, the skin becomes earthy in appearance.
