Not all cancer symptoms are visible—pain can be a major warning sign. Understanding what types of pain matter can help you act early.
Pain You Shouldn’t Ignore
Chronic coughing or chest pain may be tied to lung cancer or leukemia.
Pelvic pain or cramps can relate to ovarian cancer or leukemia (enlarged spleen).
Back pain, especially on the lower right side, might indicate liver or breast cancer.
Stomach cramps or frequent indigestion may point to colorectal cancer.
Heavy periods or bleeding between periods are signs of uterine or endometrial cancer.
Simple Prevention Tips
Vitamin D can help protect against cancer—get sunlight or take supplements.
Exercise regularly to maintain low insulin levels and overall health.
Avoid processed foods to help reduce insulin, which is linked to prostate cancer.
Eat tomatoes and berries, rich in lycopene, which may lower prostate cancer risk.
Limit exposure to toxins like pesticides, chemical cleaners, and synthetic air fresheners.
