HOW CANCER CAUSES THESE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

When cancer cells are abnormally moving and growing fast, this pushes organs, nerves, and blood vessels nearby, causing certain signs and symptoms. This is true for even the smallest tumors in the body as they can send signals or cause symptoms in other organs, even up to the brain.

In most cases, because of the presence of cancer cells, one’s blood tests will reflect the abnormal activities going on inside the body. The results will typically cause alarm and lead to a bigger degree of testing and examination. Most of the time, however, symptoms like pain and fever will occur first and will push an individual to see a doctor to run tests.

As cancer spreads all over the body during the process that is medically known as metastasization, different parts of the body will start giving signals, portending that something is awry. At this point, the individual should be assessed as soon as possible because any delay in getting treatment can cause the cancer to progress to an unmanageable degree.

Indeed, a sufferer might miss out on the window of opportunity where treatment can still make a difference. So in case you are feeling more tired than you think you should be, give your body more attention and look out for other symptoms.
