Cancer Myths & Early Signs: What Everyone Should Know

Cancer is not always fatal—early detection and advanced treatments make many cases curable. Awareness and preventive care save lives.

Facts To Remember:

• Early diagnosis improves survival; many cancers are treatable or curable when caught early.
• Don’t ignore persistent warnings: unusual lumps, unexplained weight loss, abnormal bleeding, changes in bowel habits or swallowing, non-healing sores.
• Screening and check-ups help detect cancers before symptoms appear.
• Vaccines (HPV, Hep-B) reduce risk of virus-related cancers.
• Care today is personalised by a multidisciplinary team—ask a specialist rather than relying on myths.
