Cancer Symptoms That Women Often Ignore!!!!

Many people neglect the early signs of cancer;  Instead going to the doctor, they attribute their symptoms to other diseases and do self medications, often they take advise from some other person who has no knowledge about medicine. This will delay the time between the onset of symptoms and the actual diagnosis called as the lead time. This may lead to worsening of medical condition before a medical advise is sought.
Cancer can be cured medically only if is detected in early stages. In order to avoid getting diagnosed late, when it is difficult to control the disease, you should recognize the first signs of cancer, that women usually neglect:
  •  Red, painful and swollen breasts. Hardening of breasts
  • lump in the breast( painful and painless both)
  • Changed breast nipples (skin peeling, pulling or twisting).
  • weight loss or abnormal body weight (may indicate ovarian cancer).
  • Feeling of fullness and loss of appetite.
  • Unusually hard and painful periods or bleeding between periods (may indicate cervical cancer) especially in pre-menopausal women.
  • vaginal bleeding and unhealthy secretion in post menopausal women.

If you notice any of these symptoms, immediately schedule an appointment with your doctor. Don’t wait until it is too late!
