Signs of Colon Cancer

 Colon cancer, also known as colorectal cancer when it includes the rectum, is a type of cancer that starts in the large intestine (colon). It typically begins as small, noncancerous clumps of cells called polyps that form on the inner lining of the colon. Over time, some of these polyps can become cancerous.

1. Persistent Changes in Bowel Habits 

Frequent diarrhea, constipation, or a change in stool consistency that lasts more than a few days.

 2. Blood in Stool

Bright red or dark blood in your stool could signal internal bleeding from the colon.

 3. Unexplained Weight Loss

Sudden weight drop without a change in diet or exercise may be a red flag.
