Colorectal cancer, also known as colon and rectal cancer, is one of the most common cancers in the world today. If this disease is detected in the early stages, it becomes easier to save the patient. However, this cancer often develops stealthily, making it difficult to detect early symptoms. Today we will tell you what symptoms appear in the early stages of colorectal cancer.

1. Change in bowel habits: A sign of colorectal cancer can be a persistent change in bowel habits. This can lead to diarrhea or constipation, and a feeling that the bowel does not empty completely. If this condition persists for several weeks, it can be a serious problem.

2. Rectal bleeding: Bleeding in the stool is a warning symptom of colorectal cancer. Depending on the location of the tumor, the blood may be bright red or dark in color. This symptom can indicate any number of health problems, and should not be ignored.

3. Sudden weight loss: Weight loss without any reason can also be a symptom of colorectal cancer. This weight loss occurs without any special dieting or exercise. This problem may arise due to the rapid growth of cancer cells and their increased need for energy.

4. Abdominal pain or discomfort: If you are experiencing persistent abdominal pain, gas, or cramps, it could be a sign of colorectal cancer. This discomfort is often accompanied by bloating or a feeling of fullness in the abdomen.

5. Fatigue and weakness: People affected by colorectal cancer often experience fatigue and weakness, even when they are not active. This fatigue may be a result of internal blood loss due to cancer.

6. Effect of bacteria: According to recent research, the bacteria Fusobacterium nucleatum present in the mouth contribute to the growth of colorectal cancer. A study published in the 'Nature Journal' analyzed the cholesterol of 200 patients. This study found that the level of Fusobacterium nucleatum is important when examining cancer tumors. It is very important to understand the symptoms of colorectal cancer and take the right steps in time. If you see any of the symptoms mentioned above, contact a doctor immediately. Early detection increases the chances of treatment, which further increases the hope of saving lives.
