Colorectal cancer can cause a variety of symptoms, though these vary from person to person. The most common are:
Changes in bowel habits, such as diarrhea, constipation, or changes in stool consistency.
Blood in the stool or rectal bleeding.
Persistent abdominal pain, cramps, or discomfort.
A feeling of bloating or incomplete bowel movements.
Persistent fatigue or weakness.
Unexplained weight loss.
Urgency to defecate.
Anemia caused by blood in the stool.
Causes of colon cancer:
Colorectal cancer, a slowly progressing disease, is associated with multiple risk factors. Inherited genetic mutations, such as Lynch syndrome and familial adenomatous polyposis, as well as a history of polyps or colorectal cancer, increase the risk. In addition, advanced age, a diet high in red meat and low in fiber, a sedentary lifestyle, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, obesity, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are also associated with a higher risk. A healthy lifestyle, participation in recommended screening tests, and regular medical checkups are essential to reducing these risks.
Treatment of colon cancer:
Treatment is primarily surgical, focusing on the affected part of the colon. Doctors may also offer a treatment protocol based on radiation therapy and/or chemotherapy.
It is important to note that some families have a predisposition to colon cancer. After years of indecision, France has implemented a national screening program for people between the ages of 50 and 74.
