Dana-Farber's Jeffrey Meyerhardt, MD, discusses symptoms, screening, and what you can do to help lower your risk of colon cancer. #ColonCancerAwarenessMonth | Dana-Farber Cancer Institute

The first sign of colon cancer isn’t what most people think 🚨 It’s often not pain. Changes in bowel habits, ongoing bloating, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, or blood in the stool can be warning signs. Most of the time, these symptoms are not cancer. Many common gut conditions can look similar - which is why persistent symptoms should always be discussed with your doctor. #cancer #cancerprevention #cancerawareness #drsethi | Saurabh Sethi MD
