Colon cancer: let’s test it!

You have observed a change in bowel movements (diarrhea, constipation); a feeling that the intestine is not completely emptying; the presence of bright red or very dark blood in the stool; stool that is narrower or thinner than usual; abdominal discomfort (frequent painful gas, bloating, heaviness, cramps); unexplained weight loss; constant exhaustion, or persistent fatigue; anemia (unexplained lack of iron) and a low rate of red blood cells…, these are the main symptoms which can suggest the presence of polyps, possibly precancerous, or even the presence of colon cancer.

In this month of March, dedicated to colorectal cancer screening, a platform www.ensembledemasquonslecancer.be answers all the questions one can ask on this subject.
