Cancer

Cancer is a disease where abnormal cells in the body grow uncontrollably, forming masses called tumors. These cells can invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body through the bloodstream or lymphatic system. Cancer can originate in various organs and tissues, leading to different types, such as breast, lung, or prostate cancer. Factors contributing to cancer include genetic mutations, environmental influences, and lifestyle choices, like smoking or diet. Early detection and treatment are crucial, as timely intervention can improve outcomes significantly.
