CANCER – AN OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION Cancer is a disease in which
a group of abnormal cells grow
uncontrollably to invade surrounding tissues and destroy them
This
happens when the nucleus of the cell is damaged and is thus
unable to
behave normally SYMPTOMS
In the early stages of cancer there may not be much visible
effect, but
the early warning signals are as follows:
C – change in bowel or bladder habits A – a sore throat that
persists U – unusual bleeding or discharge T – thickening or
lump in the breast or elsewhere I – indigestion or difficulty
in swallowing O – obvious change in a wart or mole N – nagging
cough or hoarseness
CAUSES AND RISKS
Cancer usually occurs when the nucleus of the cell is damaged
It has
however been seen that some people are more prone to cancer, in
as much
as their cells are more susceptible to the kind of damage, that
leads
to cancer Cells can also be damaged after years of exposure to
the sun
or radiation The consumption of tobacco can also lead to
cancer
Certain chemicals can also damage the nucleus of cells and lead
to
cancer
PREVENTION
The steps to prevent cancer are well known and are as follows:-
Avoidance of tobacco products will prevent the onset of lung
cancer Limiting the exposure of children to the sun will help
prevent
melanoma Consumption of high fiber diet will help reduce the
risk of colon
cancer Avoiding the consumption of alcohol Self-examination by
men of their testicles Self examination by women of their
breasts Self examination of the mouth For those cancers which
cannot be prevented, the way out is
early/timely detection and diagnosis
DIAGNOSIS
Where early warning signs point to cancer, its presence can be
confirmed by the following methods:-
A piece of the abnormal cell is removed with a biopsy and
examined in a
pathology laboratory In some cases the whole tumor is removed
Specialized X-rays and blood tests may also be performed
