Intestinal Cancer: Know Fast, Able to Cure
Secretion is a normal thing that everyone needs to do as a routine. In fact, there are many people that have secretion that is not routine because it takes 3-5 days until the secretion will occur. The abnormality is often found, like melena, and might think that it might come from hemorrhoid even though such abnormality might become the silent danger that can lead to critical illness.
Colon cancer is the cancer that can be commonly found in Thailand and around the world. The patient will have abnormal secretion, like constipation, diarrhea, and melena. Some patients come to see the doctor because of blood loss until having anemia. Mostly, the cancer is found around the colon in the abdominal cavity more than the direct intestine. This type of cancer comes from having high fat food regularly and another part comes from heredity. It cannot be completely cured. The endoscopy or other methods are needed to detect the disease and remove the bad flesh to prevent the spreading of the disease.
The detection of colon cancer starts from detection after the screening test and when the symptoms occur. For example: Melena, which is the basic symptom that most patients come to see the doctor and feel quite anxious. Some people might secrete with blood or some people might secrete in blood with no feces at all. The diagnosis of whether you have colon cancer or not can be done by endoscopy. If an abnormality occurs and it can be detected fast, a permanent cure can be done. If found in Phase 1-2, most patients can be completely cured.
