Cancer doesn't always cause obvious symptoms early on. Sometimes the warning signs are subtle and people sadly brush them off and it's caught too late. Here are three warning signs that you guys should know about. And number one is unexplained weight loss. If you're losing weight without changing your diet or your exercise routine, especially if it's a significant amount of weight, don't just assume it's a good thing. Unexplained weight loss can often be a major sign of cancer. Number two is going to be a new or growing lump. Most lumps aren't cancer, but a lump that's hard, fixed in place, growing, or it doesn't go away needs to be checked by a good doctor. Pay attention to the common areas like your neck, your breasts, your testicles, or your armpits. Number three is going to be unexplained bleeding. Blood in your stool, your urine, or if you're coughing up blood, that should never be ignored. Even if it's painless or only happens occasionally, any unusual bleeding definitely warrants a professional checkup with a good doctor. Now, before you guys freak out with your health anxiety, having one of these symptoms does not automatically mean you have cancer. There's plenty of other benign explanations for a couple of these things, but if a symptom is new, unexplained, or persistent, get it checked. because early detection can literally save your life because you know this is cancer we're talking about.
