IS CANCER 100% CURABLE??????? YES…….…IF DETECTED EARLY!!!!
Early detection of cancer is very important because at the time when cancer start developing in human body, in most of the cancer cases depending on the type of cancer it doesn’t show any early symptoms like Jaundice, Malaria, etc..
And also if cancer is detected and treated at the early stage then it is 100% curable.

WHAT IS CANCER?Cancer is a disease caused
by an uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in a part of the body.
The cancer cells keep on growing and making new cells. They crowd out normal cells.
A malignant growth or tumor resulting from such a division of cells causes problems in the part of the body where the cancer started.

WHY IS CRAB ( )THE SYMBOL OF CANCER?
“Cancer” is the Latin word for crab.
In its natural habitat, a crab is a fast, resilient decapod crustacean that springs to action and moves in multiple directions.
Similarly cancer spreads from the place at which it first arose as a primary tumor to distant locations in the body.

HOW DOES IT SPREAD IN OUR BODY?
•The cells within malignant tumors have the ability to invade neighboring tissues and organs, thus spreading the disease. •It is also possible for cancerous cells to break free from the tumor site and enter the bloodstream, spreading the disease to other organs. •This process of spreading is called metastasis.

STAGES OF CANCERStage 0 : Carcinoma in situStage I : Cancers are localized to one part of the body.Stage II : Cancers are locally advanced.Stage III : Cancers are also locally advanced. The
specific criteria for Stages II and III differ according to diagnosis.
Stage IV : Cancers have often metastasized, or spread to other organs or throughout the body.

STAGES OF CANCER (colon)
Stage 0: Very early cancer on the innermost layer of the intestine
Stage I: Cancer is in the inner layers of the colonStage II: Cancer has spread through the muscle wall of the colon
Stage III: Cancer has spread to the lymph nodesStage IV: Cancer that has spread to other organs

WHICH TREATMENT IS BEST FOR CANCER???
When initially diagnosed with cancer, a cancer specialist (called an oncologist) will provide the patient with cancer treatment options.
He or she will recommend the best treatment plan based on the type of cancer, how far it has spread, and other important factors like age and general health.
Ultimately, it is the patient who makes the treatment decisions based on doctor's recommendations, possible second opinions, and other information gathered from qualified professionals.

TREATMENT OF CANCERThere are four standard
methods: surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and immunotherapy/biologic therapy.

APPROACHES TO CONTROL CANCER
There are four principal approaches to cancer control: 1. Prevention2. Early Detection3. Diagnosis and Treatment4. Palliative Care
![Page 22: Cancer](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c904ba4a79592e5f8b4572/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE!!

EARLY DETECTION
Early detection of cancer greatly increases the chances for successful treatment.
There are two major components of early detection of cancer: education to promote early
diagnosisscreening.
![Page 24: Cancer](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c904ba4a79592e5f8b4572/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
PROPER DIAGNOSISRecognizing possible warning
signs of cancer and taking prompt action leads to early diagnosis.
Early diagnosis is particularly relevant for cancers of the breast, cervix, mouth, larynx, colon and rectum, and skin.
Screening is the presumptive identification of unrecognized disease or defects by means of tests, examinations, or other procedures that can be applied rapidly.
![Page 25: Cancer](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c904ba4a79592e5f8b4572/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
GOOD TREATMENT
Take good treatment as per the oncologists advice.
We can use Arogyasri and white ration cards for availing free treatment.
Train tickets are also issued free for the patient and at concessional rates for the attendant.
![Page 26: Cancer](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c904ba4a79592e5f8b4572/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
PALLIATIVE CAREThis is the care and
support given to improve the quality of life of patients.
Psychological, social, and spiritual problems are taken care of.
Palliative care is given throughout a patient’s experience with cancer. It should begin at diagnosis and continue through treatment, follow-up care, and the end of life.
