Symptoms of Cancer
2
Cancer is a very dangerous disease, if not
treated at the right time may have worse effect
on you. You should know some of the common
indication and symptoms of cancer. But keep in
mind, having any of these does not mean that you
have cancer. If you have any of these symptoms
and they last for a long time or get worse,
please see a doctor to find out whats going on.

Unexpected weight loss
You may be following a normal diet or may be
having a good eating habit, but still you may see
that your weight gets reduced. Most people with
cancer will lose weight at some point. An
unexplained weight loss of 10 pounds or more may
be the first sign of cancer. This happens most
often with cancers of the pancreas, stomach,
esophagus or lung.
4
Fever
Fever is very usual with cancer, but it most
often occurs after the cancer has spread.
Practically all people with cancer will have
fever at some time, particularly if the cancer or
its treatment affects the immune system. Less
often, fever may be an early sign of cancer, such
as blood cancers like leukemia or lymphoma.
5
Fatigue
Fatigue is the severe exhaustion that doesnt
get better with rest. It may be a vital
indication as the cancer grows. But it may occur
early in some cancers, like leukemia. Some colon
or stomach cancers can cause blood loss thats
not obvious. This is another way cancer can cause
fatigue.
6
Pain
Body pain is an early possible indication
with some cancers like bone cancers or testicular
cancer. A headache that does not go away or get
better with treatment may be a symptom of a brain
tumor. Back pain can be a symptom of cancer of
the colon, rectum, or ovary. Most often, pain due
to cancer means it has already spread.
7
Changes in skin
Change in skin is usually seen when someone
has some kind of skin cancers. But some other
cancers can also bring about skin changes. These
signs and symptoms include darker looking skin,
yellowish skin and eyes, reddened skin, itching,
excessive hair growth, etc.

Cancer treatment is very important and it
should be done at the right time. A regular
checkup with the doctor is very essential,
because they can spot out if any indication of
cancer is seen on your body or inside your body.
There are many ways in which cancer is treated
now and alternative way of treatment is also
getting popular. Natural ways to cure cancer has
been proven good for cancer treatment.
