Cancer can give several warning signs, which include:

  • Unusual bleeding or discharge

  • Changes in bowel and bladder habits

  • Indigestion or difficulty swallowing

  • A sore that does not heal

  • Cough or hoarseness

  • Difficulty swallowing or indigestion

  • A lump in the region

Cancer can occur due to several reasons. In most cases, cancer occurs sporadically due to random genetic mutations that accumulate over time. This can be due to ageing. It can also happen due to environmental and lifestyle risk factors, such as

  • Smoking

  • Prolonged exposure to radiation or chemicals

  • Poor diet and lack of physical activity

  • Excessive consumption of alcohol

  • Chronic infections that can increase cancer risk

  • Hormones like oestrogen, lead to uterine cancers

Not all cancers are preventable; however, by altering some lifestyle habits, you can lower your risk of a cancer diagnosis.

  • Quit smoking, as it is most often linked to cancer development

  • A healthy and plant-based diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains lowers your cancer risk

  • Exercise regularly for at least 30 minutes a day

  • Limit alcohol, as it is linked to several types of cancer

  • Protect your skin from skin cancer by using SPF protection

Since Chemotherapy is a powerful treatment, there are some side effects, which include:

  • Persistent tiredness or fatigue even after taking rest

  • Complete loss of hair or thinning 

  • Nausea and vomiting

  • Increased risk of infections due to weak immunity

  • Tingling or numbness in hands and feet
