Don’t rely on routine tests alone to protect you from cancer. It’s equally important to listen to your body and notice anything that’s different, strange, or inexplicable.
Here are some signs that are often overlooked:
1. Wheezing or shortness of breath
One of the first signs that many lung cancer patients remember noticing is the inability to catch their breath.
2. Chronic cough or chest pain
Several types of cancer, including leukemia and lung cancer, can cause symptoms that mimic a bad cough or bronchitis. Some lung cancer patients report chest pain that extends to the shoulder or down the arm.
Did you know that cancer cells thrive in acidic environments? Cancer cells thrive in acidic environments, but cease to exist in alkaline environments.
3. Frequent fevers or infections
These may be signs of leukemia, a cancer of the blood cells that begins in the bone marrow. Leukemia causes the marrow to produce abnormal white blood cells, weakening the body’s ability to fight infection.
4. Difficulty swallowing
Difficulty swallowing is usually associated with cancer of the esophagus or throat and is sometimes also an early symptom of lung cancer.
5. Swollen lymph nodes or lumps in the neck, armpits, or groin
Swollen lymph nodes indicate changes in the lymphatic system, which may be a sign of cancer.
6. Excessive bruising or bleeding that doesn’t stop
