It’s estimated that 1.4 million people in the United States are diagnosed with cancer each year. The most common cancers in adults– lung, breast, prostate and colorectal cancers – can be diagnosed through imaging and treated more successfully if found in the early stages. According to the American Cancer Society, there are seven warning signs of cancer that people should recognize and talk to their physicians if noticed. They are:
- A change in bowel or bladder habits
- A sore that does not heal
- Unusual bleeding or discharge from any place
- A lump in the breast or other parts of the body
- Chronic indigestion or difficulty in swallowing
- Obvious changes in a wart or mole
- Persistent coughing or hoarseness
