a. BOWEL CHANGES

Although not all changes in an individual’s bowel movement are symptoms of cancer, some might be and call for a serious degree of attention. Changes in bowel movement may be due to the person’s diet and fluid intake; that is why doctors still have got to check stools to see the problem.

Occasionally, continuous diarrhea may be linked to cancer. Essentially, from accounts of cancer patients, they usually feel like moving even after they have done so. In cases like this that lasts for a few days already, further evaluation is needed. In all cases where symptoms cannot be explained, there is a need to examine and evaluate further.
