Early detection of cancer leads to early initiation of treatment, which can save your life. Therefore, it is advantageous to recognise cancer signs and symptoms. Although the symptoms may not exclusively indicate cancer in most individuals, diagnosing cancer early is very important.
Identify cancer signs and symptoms and when to make an appointment with a doctor.
Generally, warning signs of cancer may not necessarily be cancer symptoms in most individuals. However, if you suspect that you are experiencing any warning signs of cancer and you are unsure about them, do make an appointment with your doctor.
The above are general cancer signs and symptoms. For more detailed information regarding signs and symptoms of specific cancers, please refer to the individual cancer articles available by accessing the interactive human body map for cancer on our Oncology (Cancer) website.
