my husband is having issues. he has had hemmroid problems before. he has never been like he was today, lots of pain in his lower back, stomach, and rectum. he refuses to go to the doctor. hardheaded.

I had colon cancer. My symptoms did not show up until the tumor got quite large. first sign was long periods of pain in the region of what seemed like my stomach which got worse as time went by until it was hurting all night long. next sign was sudden weight loss (4 pounds in one month without trying to lose weight). next symptom was tiredness (low iron because the tumor was bleeding). I could not see blood in my stool but a test I had run detected it. if he's got ongoing pain then he really should be seeing a gastroenterologist. It took me about a year and a half to figure out what was wrong with me after tests. thank God I was persistent because that is what saved me. I had surgery one year ago today, September 5th. I never dreamed I would ever get cancer and I was trying to do all the right things. It will be a huge mistake if he doesn't go to the doctor to find out what is wrong with him. It could cost him his life.

Throat cancer is also called as vocal cord cancer or laryngeal cancer or cancer of glottis; basically it is a type of cancer which occurs in the throat’s upper part.

The worse thing is that it can spread to all parts of the throat; it is not gender specific, it occurs in both male and female. it can even damage normal functionality of the throat system.

One of the common causes of throat cancer is smoking or consumption of tobacco. getting addicted to alcohol can also lead to this cancer. If someone is consuming both alcohol and addicted to smoking, the chances of encountering this disease is quite high.

Some of the common symptoms of this disease are neck pain, swelling of neck, sore throat, feeling hard when swallowing something, sudden weight loss (it may be due to many reasons), coughing blood, and strange sound during breathing, chest pain and so on.

These symptoms don’t necessarily have to be the symptoms of throat cancer, there are various other reasons which can cause these similar symptoms.

The best way is to consult your doctor as soon as you encounter any of these symptoms or any other health problem or better you can quit smoking.
