What is Cancer?
Cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells grow uncontrollably and may spread to different parts of the body. These cells can invade nearby tissues and interfere with normal organ function.
Symptoms of cancer vary depending on the type and stage of the disease, but may include:
- Unexplained weight loss
- Persistent fatigue
- Unusual lumps or swelling
- Changes in bowel or bladder habits
- Persistent cough or hoarseness
Cancer treatment is personalized and depends on the type, stage, and overall health of the patient. Common treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy, with the primary goals of controlling the disease, preventing its spread, and maintaining quality of life.
