Dr. Zhao Haiming
Early symptoms of esophageal cancer include acid reflux, heartburn, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, and general weakness. Patients may also experience dizziness and unexplained weight loss. Once diagnosed with esophageal cancer, it is important to actively follow medical advice for treatment. Surgical intervention can be used, along with complementary traditional Chinese medicine, which may achieve a relatively favorable therapeutic outcome.
