⚠️ 5 Key Early Warning Signs

• Unexplained Weight Loss Losing 10 pounds or more without trying can sometimes be an early sign of cancers such as stomach, lung, or pancreas.

• Persistent Fatigue Extreme tiredness that doesn’t improve with rest may indicate cancer, as the disease consumes nutrients and weakens the body.

• Skin Changes New growths, changes in moles, or yellowing/darkening of the skin can signal skin cancer or internal cancers affecting the liver.

• Unusual Bleeding or Discharge Blood in stool, urine, or coughing up blood should never be ignored. These may point to colon, bladder, or lung cancer.

• Lingering Pain or Discomfort Chronic headaches, back pain, or abdominal pain that persists without clear cause can sometimes be linked to cancer.

🩺 Why These Symptoms Matter

• Early detection saves lives: Cancer treatment is most effective when tumors are small and haven’t spread.

• Not always cancer: Many of these symptoms can be caused by less serious conditions, but only a doctor can rule cancer out.

• Action step: If you notice any of these signs, especially if they persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional promptly.

👉 These symptoms are signals, not diagnoses. Paying attention to them can make a critical difference in catching cancer early.
