Unexplained weight loss, severe fatigue, new, prolonged pain that does not go away or even blood in the urine and stools… These evocative signs of cancer are (generally) well known to the general public. However, it remains impossible to know all the symptoms associated with cancers because their number is so high, and not all of them are easy to detect. Some may even be so light that they go unnoticed.
“It exists more than 200 types of cancer with many different possible symptomssays Karin Betts, head of health information at Cancer Research UK at MailOnline. It’s impossible to know them all, so it’s important to get your doctor’s advice if you notice anything that isn’t normal for you or isn’t going away.”
Symptoms that deviate from your usual condition
Even if the slightest unusual sign does not mean that the pathology is there, spotting a persistent or unexplained symptom as early as possible (in the case of cancer) means that the potential treatment used will have a better chance of being effective and that the chances healing will be significantly improved. If in doubt, do not wait to consult a health professional. A common point to recognize them remains that they depart from what is typical and normal for you.
So excessive sweating during your sleep, too greasy stools or mind elsewhere… These strange symptoms can be the sign of the beginning of cancer. Hence the importance of remaining attentive to the symptoms, even in the event of regular screening.
