What is Cancer, And Why
Does Cancer Occur in Our
Body?
Cancer is a broad term for diseases
that can occur in different parts of the
body. When cells in the body change
abnormally and divide rapidly, it results
in cancer.
How Cancer Occurs
in Human Body?
These lymph nodes are located in
our body in clusters in different
areas like the neck and under the
arms. Another way cancer can
spread to other parts of your body
is through the bloodstream. They
can reach other body parts like the
lungs, brain, liver, etc

Symptoms of
Cancer
• Tiredness
• Unknown weight loss
• Continuous pain
• Fever during night
• Skin changes like moles. There can be new moles or existing
moles changing shapes.
• Some causes that might arise when it’s untreated:
• Difficulty to swallow
• Persistent lumps or bumps on the body
• Easy bleeding or bruising
• Difficult breathing.
Diagnosis
The doctor will talk about medical
history and discuss symptoms,
followed by various tests for diagnosis.
Screen tests like colonoscopy, pap test,
mammography, etc., to confirm the
diagnosis
Grading of Stage 4 cancer:
TNM refers to Tumour, Node, and
Metastasis. Tumour is the original size
of a Tumour. Node to understand
whether it’s present in lymph nodes.
Metastasis to understand whether it’s
spread across different body parts.

Conclusion
In our modern lifestyle, the risk factors
of cancer have increased, and it’s
important to have a healthy lifestyle to
avoid these issues. Symptoms and
screenings at an early stage to detect
cancer are highly vital. Cancer at an
early stage can be cured, but later it
can be more complicated.
