There are many symptoms associated with cancer. Cancer is organ and tissue-specific and can affect virtually any part of the body, with each cancer indication requiring a different treatment regimen. There are, however, a few symptoms that are present in a majority of cancer cases, such as pain. Although pain is an extremely general symptom that can be associated with virtually any disorder, unexplained pain that lingers for months at a time should be investigated by a physician. Weight loss and fatigue are other common indicators of various cancers that could be general symptoms also linked to cancer growth. Finally, changes in the skin, hair or nails may also be a sign of cancer, or deteriorating heath. Noticeable changes in the skin, accompanied by other common symptoms, should prompt individuals to consult a physician.
