Cancer is a condition where abnormal cells grow uncontrollably, potentially invading other tissues. It develops when the body's control systems fail, often due to genetic mutations or environmental factors.

Symptoms vary depending on the type of cancer but may include unusual lumps, unexplained weight loss, persistent fatigue, changes in skin or moles, and prolonged cough or discomfort.

Cancer diagnosis involves a combination of methods, including imaging tests (like CT scans or MRIs), biopsies, blood tests, and genetic testing to confirm the type and stage of cancer.

Early detection allows for treatment at an initial stage when the cancer is more manageable, increasing the chances of successful outcomes and reducing treatment complexity.

Common treatments include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormonal therapy. The choice depends on the cancer type, stage, and patient-specific factors.

Treatment side effects vary. While some therapies might cause discomfort, modern techniques aim to minimize pain, and supportive care is available to manage side effects effectively.

Yes, maintaining a healthy lifestyle by eating a balanced diet, exercising, avoiding tobacco, limiting alcohol, and getting regular screenings can reduce cancer risk.
