Early Detection Saves Lives! Dr. Rejeesh Selvaganesan, Surgical Gastroenterologist at KIMSHEALTH Nagercoil, raises awareness about Colorectal Cancer, a silent but preventable disease. He explains that colorectal cancer begins in the colon or rectum, often shows no symptoms in the early stages. Regular screening, colonoscopy, and endoscopy after 45 years of age are crucial for early detection and complete cure. Don’t ignore warning signs like bleeding during motion, unexplained weight loss, or persistent abdominal pain. Follow a healthy lifestyle, avoid red or processed meat, smoking, and alcohol, and stay proactive about your health. Let’s stand together for a cancer-free tomorrow!
