Title: Simple Guide to Cancer Detection in India
Every year, over 14 lakh people in India are diagnosed with cancer, and nearly 9 lakh die from it. The most common cancers in India are breast, cervical, oral, lung, and colorectal cancer. The good news is that many of these cancers can be prevented or detected early.

Common Early Symptoms to Watch For
1.Breast Cancer: Lump in the breast or underarm, changes in breast size/shape, nipple discharge, or skin dimpling.
2. Cervical Cancer: Unusual bleeding (after sex, between periods), smelly discharge, or pelvic pain.
3. Oral Cancer: Mouth ulcers that don’t heal, white or red patches, swelling in jaw, difficulty swallowing.
4. Lung Cancer: Persistent cough, chest pain, blood in sputum, breathlessness.
5. Colorectal Cancer: Blood in stool, change in bowel habits, unexplained weight loss, abdominal pain.
If any of these symptoms last more than 2 weeks, see a doctor.

Prevention Tips
Avoid tobacco in all forms. It causes 80% of oral cancers.
Limit alcohol use. It increases risk of mouth, liver, and breast cancers.
Eat healthy: More fruits, vegetables, and fiber. Less red meat and processed food.
Get vaccinated: HPV vaccine protects against cervical cancer. Hepatitis B vaccine reduces liver cancer risk.
Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy weight.
Practice safe sex to prevent HPV.

Screening Tests You Should Know
Oral Exam: Done visually by a doctor/dentist. Recommended every 5 years for adults over 30.
Breast Check: Clinical breast exam every 5 years from age 30. Self-exam monthly. Mammography for women over 40 if advised.
Cervical Cancer Test: VIA test (Visual inspection with acetic acid) or Pap smear every 5 years for women aged 30–65.
Colon Cancer: No national program yet. Ask your doctor after age 45-50, especially if family history exists.

Basic Treatments
Surgery: To remove the tumor.
Chemotherapy: Anti-cancer medicines through vein or tablets.
Radiotherapy: High-energy rays to kill cancer cells.
Your doctor may use one or a combination depending on the stage and type of cancer.

Emotional and Social Support After Diagnosis
Getting a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming. It’s okay to feel scared or confused. Talk to a family member, trusted friend, or counselor. Many hospitals also offer support groups where you can meet others going through similar journeys.
Remember, mental strength and positive thinking play an important role in recovery. Don't hesitate to seek emotional support. You're not alone.

Government Help and Free Services
In India, the government provides free screening and treatment for certain cancers under schemes like:
Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY): Offers free treatment at empaneled hospitals for low-income families.
Health & Wellness Centers : Provide free screening for oral, breast, and cervical cancers for adults aged 30–65.
HPV vaccination drives for young girls in schools and communities.
You can ask your local PHC, CHC, or district hospital about these services. Many NGOs and charitable hospitals also provide free or low-cost treatment.

Break the Fear – Take the Step
Cancer is often feared because of myths or lack of awareness. But remember:
Early detection can save lives.
Treatments are available and improving every year.
Many people live healthy lives after successful treatment.
Be the change: go for a screening, talk about cancer with your loved ones, and encourage someone else to take that first step.
