Ways of Recognizing Colon Cancer Symptoms

Colon cancer symptoms are important to recognize because getting early treatment is the best way to conquer this illness.

There are several things that you may experience if you have colon cancer but haven’t been tested yet.

One important thing to know before you read through the symptoms is that colon cancer symptoms are similar to many other illnesses.

So if you have some of these symptoms it doesn’t mean that you definitely have cancer.

What it does mean is that you need to see a healthcare provider so that you can have the proper tests and a diagnosis.

The only way to know for sure is to have these tests and procedures done. But knowing what to look for can help you get an early diagnosis.

The most obvious symptom is changes in your bathroom routine. For example, you might have diarrhea or constipation that lasts for a long period of time.

Everyone has diarrhea and constipation on occasion, but with cancer this is something that’s causing long-term problems.

You might also feel like you need to have a bowel movement even if you’ve just had one. That pressure will continue regardless of how many times you’ve gone to the bathroom. You may also experience pain or cramping in your lower abdomen.

Bleeding can also be a sign of colon cancer. If you have blood in the stool or your stool is much darker than usual, it’s something that you need to have checked. However, even people with colon cancer may have stool that looks normal.

When your colon isn’t working properly it can throw your whole digestive system out of whack. Feeling weak or fatigued is also a result of colon cancer.

Again, fatigue can be a symptom of many different illnesses but it’s important to pay attention to your body.

You may also experience weight loss without trying to. This isn’t the kind of weight loss you have when you go on a diet.

This is weight loss that you can’t control. This is because you’re not able to digest all the nutrients from your food properly.

These symptoms could be a signal that something else is going wrong.

Many people who suffer from problems such as irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease, celiac disease, and hemorrhoids have similar symptoms – so don’t panic if you see these.

It’s important to pay attention to your body no matter what health concern you have. Make sure to keep a log of your symptoms that you can use when you make an appointment with your doctor.

If you have colon cancer symptoms, it’s important to get a proper diagnosis.
