5 Common Symptoms Of Cancer You Must Know,No 4 Should Be A Caution

Cancer is a disease in which some of the body’s cells grow uncontrollably and spread to other parts of the body.

Cancer can start almost anywhere in the human body, which is made up of trillions of cells.

Cancer is one of the notable diseases which are deadly to humans but much attention is yet to be given to it.

we bring you some common symptoms of Cancer you need to be aware of before it becomes late.

 

1.Breast Changes

Most breast changes are not cancer. It’s still important, though, to tell your doctor about them and check them out.

Let them know about any lumps, nipple changes or discharge, redness or thickening, or pain in your breasts. They’ll do an exam and may suggest a mammogram, MRI, or maybe a biopsy.

2.Testicle Changes

If you notice a lump or swelling in your testicles, you need to see your doctor right away.

A painless lump is the most common sign of testicular cancer. Sometimes though, men may just have a heavy feeling in their lower belly or scrotum or think their testicles feel larger.

Your doctor will do a physical exam of the area and may use an ultrasound scan to see if there is a tumor or another problem.

 

3.Swallowing Difficulties:

The common cold, acid reflux, or even some medicine can make it hard to swallow once in a while. If it doesn’t get better with time or with antacids, see your doctor.

Trouble swallowing can also be a sign of cancer in your throat or the pipe between your mouth and stomach, called the esophagus.

Your doctor will do an exam and some tests like a barium X-ray, in which you swallow a chalky fluid to show your throat more clearly on the image.

 

4.Skin Changes 

A new spot on your skin or one that changes size, shape, or color could be a sign of skin cancer.

Another is a spot that doesn’t look the same as all the others on your body. If you have any unusual marks, have your doctor check your skin.

They will do an exam and may remove a small piece (called a biopsy) to take a closer look for cancer cells.

5.Nagging Cough

If you don’t smoke, there’s very little chance a nagging cough is a sign of cancer. Usually, it’s caused by postnasal drip, asthma, acid reflux, or an infection.

But if yours doesn’t go away or you cough up blood, especially if you are a smoker, see your doctor.

They may test mucus from your lungs or do a chest X-ray to check for lung cancer.
