Symptoms Of Blood Cancer In Children

Leukemia is a condition of white blood cells that are more numerous than red blood cells but the white blood cells are abnormal, leukemia occurs because the process of the formation of blood cells are abnormal. Blood stem cells fail to mature and not formed just in time. As a result of two types of white blood cell excess amount and evolving myeloid and lymphoid cells i.e., if the number of abnormal cells, then more and more the function of white blood cells that had been tasked to protect against infection, transform into malignant cells that cause symptoms that deviate.

It is not like a cancer in adults generally occur due to an unhealthy lifestyle, cancer in children is not yet known the exact cause. It makes cancer in children cannot be prevented, cancer in children occurs as much as two to three percent of the total cancer cases in Indonesia. EDI says, that number still do not include cases that are not yet known, so it's likely the number is still a lot more. This year it is estimated there are about 4100 new cases of child cancer. Nearly 60 percent of cancer experienced by children is a blood cancer or leukemia.

Leukemia is a cancer of one moment, it is the number one cancer that kills children. Therefore, recognise the symptoms exactly. In General cancer in children was divided into two major groups, namely liquid and solid. Leukemia is a cancer that is present in liquid form in the blood, most leukaemia found in children aged 2-6 years. However, this cancer can occur in all age groups with the largest groups are children and parents over the age of 50 years.

The case of child cancer is most prevalent is a blood cancer (leukemia), and cancer of the eye (retinoblastoma). In addition there is also a bone cancer, cancer of the lymph nodes, cancer of the liver, kidney, ovary, brain, and others. The disease of Leukemia (blood cancer) is a cancer that often strikes children and this is a type of cancer that attacks the white blood cells.

Leukemia generally appears on a person since his childhood, early bone marrow without known cause is clearly has been producing white blood cells that develops is not normal or abnormal. Normally, the white blood cells repeated reproduction me-when the body needs it or is there a place for blood cell itself. The human body will give the sign/signal regularly when blood cells are expected to be-reproduced.

In the case of Leukemia (blood cancer), white blood cells did not respond to a sign/signal is given. The production of excessive uncontrolled (abnormal) will come out from the bone marrow and are found in the peripheral blood or blood banks, the number of abnormal white blood cells this if overconsumption can disrupt the normal function of the cell to another, a person with this condition (Leukemia) will show some of the symptoms such as; easily exposed to infectious diseases, anaemia and bleeding.

Leukemia in children is an annual that is there is also an acute (chronic). If not immediately treated, acute leukemia can be a highly fatal disease in a few months.

The first symptom is easily tired and pale face. When small, the human being is supposed to be on a very active phase of the move. Thus, the conditions are easily tired and pale easily is not a normal condition.

Ladies know the cause? Blood cancer is the occurrence of abnormalities in white blood cells, so that the white blood cells kills red blood cells and other blood cells. So, white blood cells that kill parasites should serve, even to kill cells of the blood.

It causes a lack of supply of red blood cells in people with leukemia. In fact, functioning red blood cells circulate nutrients, and oxygen throughout the body. If red blood cells are less, no wonder its easy tired and pale easily.

The second symptom of infection is accompanied by a fever that never healed. On a normal and healthy children, administering antibiotics along with the normal white blood cells could overcome the infection.

In children with leukemia cells, the white blood cells, though there are a number of very many, but white blood cells that fight infection don't work, Ladies. So, the granting of antibiotics would be useless.
