Rectum Cancer

Rectal Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide by BenedicaHealth

Rectal cancer is a type of cancer that originates in the rectal tissue, which is the final section of the large intestine or colon. While it can be treated successfully if diagnosed early, it can become more challenging to treat in advanced stages. At BenedicaHealth, we are here to support you through this difficult journey.

Symptoms and Diagnosis of Rectal Cancer

Symptoms of rectal cancer can include changes in bowel habits (such as constipation or diarrhea), bloody stools, abdominal pain or cramps, weight loss, and fatigue. Diagnosis is usually made through methods such as colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, stool tests, and imaging tests.
