Colon Cancer: Early Diagnosis Can Make a Life or Death Difference

When colon cancer is detected early, the prognosis is often a good one. In fact, the 5-year survival rate of localized colon cancer is 90%. But unfortunately, only 4 out of 10 colorectal cancers are found in a timely manner. In the majority of situations, colon cancer is only found after it has started to spread. And making it much more difficult to treat and making outcomes much poorer.

Unfortunately, colon/colorectal cancer is not always diagnosed timely and when colon cancer is involved, a mistake can cost you or a loved one’s life. Negligence on the part of a trusted provider can prevent you from getting the early treatment. And you need to increase your chances of a full recovery.
