Seek Medical Advice Early: Don’t wait for severe symptoms before seeing a doctor.

Adopt Healthy Habits: Eat well, avoid tobacco and excess alcohol, exercise regularly, and manage stress.

Stay Informed: Learn about common can.cer symptoms and risks.

Can.cer itself isn’t as frightening as ignoring its early signs. Respecting your body’s signals allows you to protect your health.

Practical Prevention and Self-Examination Tips
1. Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle
Balanced Diet: Prioritize fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Limit processed foods, red meats, and sugary drinks.

Exercise Regularly: Aim for 150 minutes of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity weekly.

Avoid Tobacco and Limit Alcohol: Both significantly increase can.cer risk.

Protect Your Skin: Use sunscreen and protective clothing to lower risk of skin can.cer.

2. Know Your Family History
Share your family’s medical history with your doctor. Certain can.cers run in families, and early screening can be planned accordingly.

3. Regular Medical Screenings

Follow recommended screenings such as mammograms, Pap smears, and colonoscopies based on age and risk. Screening often detects can.cer before symptoms appear.

4. Self-Examination Practices
Breast Exam: Check monthly for lumps, changes in size, or skin changes.

Skin Check: Watch for new or changing moles—apply the ABCDE rule (Asymmetry, Border, Color, Diameter, Evolution).

Oral Exam: Look for sores, patches, or lumps in the mouth lasting more than two weeks.

Testicular Exam (for men): Monthly check for lumps, swelling, or changes in size and firmness.

5. Pay Attention to Persistent Symptoms
Unexplained pain, sores, bleeding, or digestive changes should never be ignored.

6. Manage Stress and Sleep Well
Chronic stress and poor sleep weaken immunity. Practice relaxation, meditation, or yoga, and aim for 7–9 hours of rest nightly.
