When you want to cut a tree, you should first sharpen your axe before you start swinging it. This is the same principle with cancer. When you have to fight cancer, you should first prepare for it, and the best preparation is gaining knowledge about what cancer is, what its symptoms are and how to best fight it. Here we give you all that information.

What is cancer?

Cancer forms when abnormal cells grow rapidly. It can affect any part of the body and can spread to any other part of the body. Primary cancers are cancers that originate in a place. Secondary or metastasized cancers are those that have spread to other parts of the body from the primary cancer.

What are the symptoms of cancer?

Each cancer is different and will have unique symptoms. Some cancers also may not have any symptom in the early stages, but there are common some signs and symptoms that can tell you that there may be something wrong. They could be cancers or some other disease, but they should never be ignored.

These general symptoms are unexplained pain, lumps, non-healing sores, persistent fever, chronic fatigue, unexplained voice change, unintended weight loss or gain, changes in skin or moles, changes in urination or bowel movements, persistent cough, breathing problems, swallowing difficulty, digestive problems, unexplained bleeding and bruising.

Don’t ignore any unusual change or symptom because early detection and treatment give best results.

How can knowledge of cancer help you?

Knowledge is the key to beating cancer. It helps you prevent cancer and detect it early if you already have it. Early detection and diagnosis will help us start cancer treatments early. This is the best method to cure cancer.

What can you do to prevent cancer?

We can prevent a disease only when we know what causes it. It is not clear what causes some cancers, but in general there are a few things that increase the risk of all cancers. If you avoid them, then you can reduce your risk. Tobacco in any form, too much alcohol, unhealthy diet, obesity, exposure to radiation, asbestos and certain chemicals are some of the known risk factors.
