December 20, 2023

After the news of Li Yong's death came, we were all shocked. Countless netizens couldn't believe it. How could this happen? He was still so young. In our impression, he was still the sunny boy who was active on stage. When we heard "cancer", we suddenly realized that cancer is so close to us! The following is a compilation of the world's top five incurable diseases.


  [World's Top Five Incurable Diseases]

  There is a terrifying statistic that shows the current situation of cancer in China: the number of deaths accounts for one-fourth of the global total.

  The world's top five incurable diseases: Motor Neuron Disease (ALS), cancer, AIDS, leukemia, and rheumatism are listed by the World Health Organization as the top five difficult diseases. Currently, leukemia is the only one that can be cured through bone marrow transplantation. The other diseases cannot be cured.

  1. Motor Neuron Disease

  "ALS" is a type of motor neuron disease (MND), medically known as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). It is characterized by progressive muscle atrophy and weakness, making the body gradually freeze. It is commonly known as "ALS" or "ALS disease".

  2. Leukemia

  Leukemia is a malignant disease of the hematopoietic tissue, also known as "blood cancer". Its characteristic is the unrestricted proliferation of leukemia cells in the bone marrow and other hematopoietic tissues, which enter the peripheral blood, while the production of normal blood cells is significantly inhibited. It is the leading malignant disease among young people. The cause is still not completely clear, and viruses may be the main pathogenic factor, but there are also many factors such as radiation, chemical toxins (such as benzene) or drugs, and genetic factors that may be secondary factors.

  3. Rheumatoid Arthritis

  Rheumatoid arthritis, also known as rheumatism, is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease with an unknown cause. Rheumatoid arthritis is recognized as an autoimmune disease.

  4. Cancer

  Cancer, also known as malignant tumors, has benign tumors as its counterpart. Tumors refer to local masses formed by the abnormal proliferation of cells in local tissues under the action of various carcinogens. Benign tumors are easier to remove completely, generally do not metastasize or recur, and only have compression and obstruction effects on organs and tissues. However, malignant tumors can also destroy the structure and function of tissues and organs, causing necrosis, bleeding, and infection. Ultimately, patients may die due to organ failure.

  5. AIDS

  AIDS was first discovered and confirmed in the United States in 1981. The full name is "Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome" (AIDS). AIDS is also known as "AIDS" or "Love Death".


  [Signs of Cancer that the Body Gives Out]

  1. Unexplained pain:

  If the body experiences unexplained pain for more than a week, the cause should be investigated as soon as possible and not be ignored.

  2. Unexplained weight loss:

  If weight suddenly decreases under normal diet and exercise conditions, it is likely related to malignant tumors.

  3. Abnormal rectal bleeding:

  In addition to hemorrhoids, rectal bleeding may also indicate problems in the digestive system.

  4. Abdominal bloating:

  One of the symptoms of ovarian cancer is gastrointestinal discomfort. Patients usually seek medical attention due to abdominal bloating, poor appetite, reduced food intake, or significant weight loss. Therefore, when women experience long-term bloating, they should take the initiative to go to the hospital for examination.

  5. Irregular bleeding:

  Abnormal bleeding between menstrual cycles and bleeding during urination and defecation are easily overlooked by women. Once this happens, vigilance should be raised as it may be a sign of endometrial cancer.

  6. Urinary problems:

  As men age, they may experience a series of urinary system problems. If symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, and even a strong urge to urinate occur, prostate cancer should be a concern.


  [Healthy Habits to Stay Away from Cancer]

  1. Avoid excessive fatigue

  Although people's living conditions are much better now than before, they are also too busy and busy. Many people feel very tired after a day of work and just want to lie on the couch after work.

  2. Reduce smoking and drinking

  Smoking and drinking are bad habits, but many people in society cannot do without them. Especially in social interactions, they have become a way to help us socialize.

  3. Reduce salt intake

  Salt is an irreplaceable seasoning in our diet, but if we eat too much salt, it will cause hypertension, increase damage to the kidneys, and be very detrimental to our blood vessels. Especially as people get older, they should pay attention to a light diet.

  4. Exercise

  Life lies in movement. If a person lacks exercise, their body will gradually decline. Exercise can not only increase our body's metabolism and blood circulation but also improve our physical fitness. Improving our immunity and resistance can prevent the occurrence of diseases and keep us away from cancer.
