Cancer refers to one of a large number of diseases characterized by the development of abnormal cells that divide uncontrollably and have the ability to infiltrate and destroy normal body tissue. Cancer often has the ability to spread throughout your body.
Cancer is the second-leading cause of death in the world. But survival rates are improving for many types of cancer, thanks to improvements in cancer screening, treatment and prevention.
Symptoms
Signs and symptoms caused by cancer will vary depending on what part of the body is affected.
Some general signs and symptoms associated with, but not specific to, cancer, include:
Fatigue
Lump or area of thickening that can be felt under the skin
Weight changes, including unintended loss or gain
Skin changes, such as yellowing, darkening or redness of the skin, sores that won’t heal, or changes to existing moles

When to see a doctor
Make an appointment with your doctor if you have any persistent signs or symptoms that concern you.
If you don’t have any signs or symptoms, but are worried about your risk of cancer, discuss your concerns with your doctor. Ask about which cancer screening tests and procedures are appropriate for you.
Causes
Cancer is caused by changes (mutations) to the DNA within cells. The DNA inside a cell is packaged into a large number of individual genes, each of which contains a set of instructions telling the cell what functions to perform, as well as how to grow and divide. Errors in the instructions can cause the cell to stop its normal function and may allow a cell to become cancerous.
What do gene mutations do?
A gene mutation can instruct a healthy cell to:
Allow rapid growth
Fail to stop uncontrolled cell growth
Make mistakes when repairing DNA errors
Risk factors
While doctors have an idea of what may increase your risk of cancer, the majority of cancers occur in people who don’t have any known risk factors. Factors known to increase your risk of cancer include:
Your age
Your habits
Your family history
Your health conditions
Your environment
Complications
Cancer and its treatment can cause several complications, including:
Pain
Fatigue
Difficulty breathing
Nausea
Diarrhea or constipation
Weight loss.
Chemical changes in your body.
Brain and nervous system problems
Unusual immune system reactions to cancer
Cancer that spreads
Cancer that returns
Prevention
Doctors have identified several ways to reduce your risk of cancer, such as:
Stop smoking
Avoid excessive sun exposure
Eat a healthy diet
Exercise most days of the week
Maintain a healthy weight
Drink alcohol in moderation, if you choose to drink
Schedule cancer screening exams
Ask your doctor about immunizations
