What is Cancer



 Cancer is abnormal and uncontrolled multiplication of cells. Normally the multiplication of cells is very systematically controlled by genetically controlled mechanisms based on bodies’ requirement. However, when one or few cells come out of this control mechanism and start multiplying that is called cancer. As the cells multiply without control, they spread to various parts of the body.

There are more than 200 types of cancers. Cancer can affect any organ in the body. However, some organs are affected more commonly than others. The most common organs affected include breast, colon & stomach. This also depends on the race and habits. Cervical cancer and mouth cancers are more common among Indians. Prostate cancer is more common among people of African origin.

Cancer can be cured if detected early. You have to be aware of your body. Look at any changes that occur so that you can approach your doctor when you notice something that needs attention.
