How to Spot Signs and Symptoms of Cancer


There Are 9 steps to indicate Cancer signs

Step 1

Experiencing change in bowel habits or abdominal pain can be a sign of cancer.

Step 2

Having pain in the throat or a sore throat that will not go away is a symptom that should be checked for cancer.

Step 3

Bleeding or discharge from any part of your body that is unusual should be considered a reason for a doctors visit.

Step 4

Finding lumps or thick spots in the breast, testicles, or anywhere on the body could be a sign of cancer and should be checked.

Step 5

Swallowing problems or indigestion should not be taken lightly. If you have this for over a couple of weeks, see your doctor. It may be more serious than acid reflux disease.

Step 6

Seeing a change in a sore, mole, or spot in your mouth is a definite concern that should be addressed. Any change or bleeding constitutes a visit to the doctor.

Step 7

Coughing that will not go away or hoarseness is also a sign of possible cancer.

Step 8

Having a headache that will not subside should be checked by a doctor as well.

Step 9

Loss of weight or decreased appetite is also a reason for concern. A healthy person will have a desire for food, and should maintain body weight.
