Colorectal cancer does not have any symptoms in the early stage, and once found, most of them are in advanced stage. However, screening can help detect cancer early, and may involve stool tests, colonoscopy, or other surgeries. Non-risk ordinary people should also start colorectale kanker screening at the age of 50, but people with higher risk factors, such as Crohn’s disease history, inflammatory bowel disease, or those with certain genetic markers, should start screening earlier check. Although colorectal cancer kills about 50,000 Americans each year, you can still reduce your risk of cancer. Increasing physical activity, limiting alcohol intake, and avoiding smoking have been shown to completely reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.
