There are no obvious symptoms at first. Pay attention to changes in stools.
Hong Kong gastroenterology and hepatology specialist Dr. Fong Ka-luu pointed out in an interview that early-stage colorectal cancer has no obvious symptoms. However, as the tumor begins to grow, colorectal cancer patients may experience different symptoms, the most obvious ones. one is a change in bowel habits. He reminded that if the situation lasts more than a month, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible:
7 high risk factors for colorectal cancer
- 1. Over 50
- 2 men
- 3. A family member suffered from colorectal cancer
- 4. Frequently eat pickled, high-fat, and fatty foods (like red meat and processed foods)
- 5. Smoking or drinking alcohol
- 6. Lack of exercise
- 7. Obesity
Dr. Fang reminded that people with a family history of this disease are 1.5 to 2 times more likely to develop colorectal cancer than normal people. Therefore, even if high-risk people have no symptoms, they should undergo colorectal cancer screening regularly to avoid developing cancer.
Colorectal cancer screening can effectively prevent colorectal cancer because most colorectal cancers develop from colorectal polyps. When colorectal polyps are discovered during a colonoscopy, they may be resected at the same time to immediately eliminate the risk. Colonoscopy can also determine the number and size of polyps in a patient’s large intestine as well as their risk of colorectal cancer. If you don’t see a doctor in time, you may have missed the ideal time to seek treatment.
