Top 6 signs of cancer cannot be ignored, easily observed with the naked eye, and help us detect the disease earlier.

The ability to successfully treat cancer is directly proportional to the early detection of the disease. The earlier the intervention, the easier it is to cure cancer. Therefore, you should regularly observe the changes in your body and do not ignore the following signs:

1. Fatigue, weakness

This expression is very easy to confuse with normal fatigue and it is also easy to ignore this warning sign of cancer. It can be a symptom of cancer such as blood cancer, stomach cancer, colon cancer... If you find your body tired and weak often, even if you rest but still don't feel better, the best you should see a doctor.

Fatigue is also one of the signs of cancer

2. Unexplained weight loss

You do not have a diet, do not follow any weight loss plan, and still lose weight? You even eat very moderately, but do not understand why this situation happens? This is the time to pay more attention to your health. It can completely be a manifestation of some cancers such as stomach cancer, esophageal cancer, pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, etc.

3. Skin changes

We should never ignore abnormal changes on the skin such as warts, moles, freckles with changes in size, color, shape... Any change should be checked in an obvious way to find the cause. Chances are, one of the above symptoms is a symptom of skin cancer.

An example of a mole that warns of skin cancer: Unusually large mole, the border is gradually spreading around

In addition, some other forms of cancer also cause changes in the skin, namely, the skin is darker, yellower, red, itchy, etc. In this case, you should not be subjective.

4. Abnormal bleeding

Coughing up blood, bloody stools, bloody urine, vaginal bleeding, nipple bleeding... are all very dangerous symptoms. It is in turn a warning sign of lung cancer, colon cancer, cervical/womb cancer, breast cancer.

5. Changes inside the mouth

Abnormal appearance of white spots in the mouth, long-lasting lacerations, and scratches, etc., can be precancerous symptoms. In particular, if you use tobacco or alcoholic beverages, you should be more careful with this expression.

With wounds in the mouth that take a long time to heal, for example, canker sores are spreading, be careful and see a doctor right away

6. Appears lumps, lumps

We can completely feel this expression through the skin and it warns of many cancers, typically breast cancer, penile cancer, lymphoma, soft cell cancer… Never ever ignore these changes, even if they are very small lumps.
