Melanoma is one of the malignant tumors, and if one contracts this disease, it is important to treat melanoma promptly as symptoms are not very pronounced in the early stages. In advanced stages, symptoms such as nausea and vomiting may occur, possibly due to irritation of the stomach. Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy can all have side effects. It is also possible that the melanoma has metastasized, causing a feeling of vomiting. It is recommended that patients take antiemetic medication to treat this, and in terms of diet, eat foods that are beneficial for the spleen and stomach, such as coix seed, yam, millet, red dates, and black fungus, all of which can help alleviate discomfort in the gastrointestinal tract.

How long will melanoma become malignant?

Melanoma is a malignant tumor caused by melanocytes in the skin and human organs. Cutaneous melanoma generally manifests as pigmented lesions that often change over many years or in a short period of time. Because of this, the risk period for melanoma varies in length, and it is uncertain how long it will take for the disease to develop. Melanoma is a malignant tumor with poor survival rates, and it is prone to aggressive metastasis. If metastasis occurs, the lifespan of the patient will be significantly reduced.

In the Chinese population, it commonly appears on the extremities of the skin, such as the sole of the foot, toes, fingertips, and under the nails. According to global cancer statistics from last year, melanoma accounts for 1.6% of all new cancer cases. In China, the incidence and mortality rates of cutaneous melanoma are relatively low, with about one case per 300,000 people.

Melanoma lymphatic metastasis symptoms

If melanoma has metastasized to the lymph nodes, it can cause lymph node enlargement. At the same time, patients with melanoma may also experience persistent fever, leading to a decrease in the body's resistance and a drop in the level of blood cells. In such cases, it is recommended to undergo a detailed examination. If metastasis is detected, surgical treatment is advised, or consider using methods such as radiation therapy for treatment.
