Stomach cancer is a malignant tumor that develops in the stomach. A malignant tumor is an abnormal mass of cells that harms the body. It is common in Korea, with about 30,000 people diagnosed each year. In its early stages, it often causes no symptoms, which makes it hard to detect early. Regular upper endoscopy is very important for early detection. If you notice unusual symptoms or have concerns, please be sure to see a medical specialist.2026-06-26

Stroke
#stroke, #dementia, #vascular dementia, #high blood pressure, #snoring, #weakness in the arms or legs, #difficulty moving one side of the body
Stroke is a medical emergency that occurs when a blood vessel in the brain becomes blocked or ruptures. A blocked blood vessel is called a cerebral infarction, and a ruptured one is called a cerebral hemorrhage. If symptoms appear, going to the emergency room immediately is the most important way to reduce aftereffects. Stroke is also closely related to dementia. The main symptom of stroke is the loss of a specific bodily function, such as paralysis of the arms or legs. The most important factor in treatment is the golden time (the critical time window for treatment), so please be sure to consult a medical specialist for an accurate diagnosis. If abnormal symptoms appear, call 119 (Korea's emergency number) or go to the emergency room immediately.2026-06-26
