Persistent cough or wheezing:
If your cough persists for several weeks or does not improve, it could be a sign of lung, throat, or larynx cancer.
Difficulty swallowing:
Difficulty swallowing, also called dysphagia, can be a symptom of esophageal or pharyngeal cancer. If you have difficulty swallowing food or liquids, ask your healthcare provider for advice.
Bowel or bladder changes:
Changes in bowel movements, such as blood in the stool, chronic diarrhea, or changes in the consistency of the bladder, may be signs of colon cancer. In addition, blood in the urine or frequent urination can also indicate bladder or kidney cancer.
Unexplained pain:
Persistent unexplained pain without an obvious cause is serious. Pain can be a symptom of many types of cancer, including bone cancer, ovarian cancer, and testicular cancer.
Breast changes:
Breast cancer is not only found in women. It can also affect men. Any noticeable breast changes, such as a lump, rash, or nipple discharge, should be evaluated immediately.
