1. Occupational protection
Individuals with long-term exposure to insecticides, organic solvents, petroleum products, and heavy metals should implement proper occupational protection measures to minimize contact with harmful chemicals.
2. Weight control
Obesity, particularly abdominal obesity, increases the risk of myeloma; maintaining a healthy weight and regular exercise can reduce chronic inflammation and lower the risk of developing the disease.
3. Treatment of chronic disease
Actively treat chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease; long-term chronic inflammation is a major risk factor for myeloma.
4. Balanced diet
Increase the intake of vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, while reducing processed meats and high-fat foods; antioxidants help protect immune system health.
5. Moderate exercise
Moderate aerobic exercise performed weekly can boost immunity, improve bone health, and lower levels of chronic inflammatory factors.
6. Avoiding radiation
Minimize unnecessary radiological examinations; attention should be paid to the fact that a history of radiotherapy may increase the risk of developing myeloma.
7. Regular blood tests
High-risk individuals should undergo regular testing of complete blood count (CBC) and immunoglobulins, while monitoring for anemia, hypercalcemia, and changes in renal function to detect abnormalities early.
Conclusion
Myeloma is caused by a combination of factors, including genetic predisposition, occupational exposure, and obesity; it can lead to serious complications such as bone destruction and renal failure.Avoiding occupational exposure, controlling weight, and undergoing regular blood tests are crucial for early detection and timely intervention.
