Some cancers can be found early, before they have had a chance to grow and spread.
In many cases, the sooner cancer is diagnosed and treated, the better a person’s chance for a full recovery.
It would be easier to detect cancer in our bodies if humans had an electronic sign that would light up when cancer may be growing in our bodies, but instead, we have to be vigilant in finding it before it’s too late.
1. A lump beneath the skin that feels hard
Lumps in breast tissue are often first discovered by women and men who perform self-exams and feel their breast tissue regularly. Self-examination of these soft tissues should help to discover changes before they develop into larger tumors.
2. Itchy skin
Cancer is treated as a bacteria in the body by your immune system. Your white blood cells are mobilized to try to destroy it. Because of this, blood flow is increased in the area of a cancerous growth and the area may feel warm, appear red, change color, feel tight or itch.
3. Wounds that do not heal
If you have a cut or other injury to the surface of your skin and it is taking a long time to heal or you notice little progress, it is a sign that cancer may be growing in your body.
4. Tongue or mouth bumps
Bumps inside the mouth, gums or throat, especially whitish colored bumps should be a cause for concern.
5. Trouble swallowing, indigestion or loss of appetite
Anything that significantly disrupts your digestive process is cause for concern because it hurts your body’s ability to get nutrition from the food that you eat.
6. Changes in bowel movements
Anything that seems different from your usual stool and that lasts for more than 2 days should begin to be a cause for concern.
7. Changes in urination
Changes in the strength of your urine flow, color, smell, presence of foam, or especially noticeable blood should be checked immediately for cancer growing in your body.
8. Bleeding
Unexplained bleeding that cannot be accounted for by a menstrual cycle should be checked quickly. Blood from the uterus, nipple, or in any bodily excretions should be examined.
9. Voice changes
Cancer of the larynx can cause your voice to change pitch and tone. Changes in your voice are a sign that cancer may be growing in your body.
10. Coughing
Cancer may be growing inside your body in your lung, esophagus, throat and even stomach if you are experiencing coughing that is persistent and not a result of another illness.
