Tumours in the stomach are also called stomach tumours or abdominal tumours. When the accumulation of abnormal cells present in the stomach leads to abnormal growth of tissue, a tumour is formed in the stomach. Tumours can occur in any part of the stomach, such as in the intestines, stomach wall, or other organs of the stomach. Stomach tumours can be cancerous (malignant) or non-cancerous (benign). When an abnormal swelling or lump forms in the stomach, it is called a stomach tumour.

The symptoms of tumours in the stomach are often simple in the beginning. But over time the size of the tumour increases, due to which the symptoms can become severe. In such a situation, it is important to pay attention to its symptoms to get timely treatment. Let us know what the symptoms are in the case of tumours in the stomach.
