Description and Symptoms of Colon Cancer
INFORMATIVE 
Tags: colorectal polyps, Colorectal Cancer, Colon Cancer, symptoms
The colon is part of the body’s digestive system. The digestive system removes and processes nutrients (vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, proteins, and water) from foods and helps pass waste material out of the body. Therefore, it is important to detect colon cancer early. Here are some symptoms of colon cancer:
| | A change in bowel habits. |
| | Blood (either bright red or very dark) in the stool. |
| | Diarrhea, constipation, or feeling that the bowel does not empty completely. |
| | Stools that are narrower than usual. |
| | Frequent gas pains, bloating, fullness, or cramps. |
| | Weight loss for no known reason. |
| | Feeling very tired. |
| | Vomiting. |
