Signs and Symptoms of Mesothelioma

Complications

Mesothelioma can cause some secondary issues. Treatment options would also affect your daily function and overall health. Swollen limbs and face or blood clots are common side effects after mesothelioma treatment. That’s why your doctor might suggest physical therapy, special equipment, or medical aids to improve mobility and comfort. In the later stage, a possible complication is minor bowel obstruction. It would be related to a loss of appetite, nausea, and constipation. If left untreated, this problem can become worse and cause life-threatening conditions. [4]
