How can patients improve their chances of early detection?
Patients can improve their chances of early detection through:
Regular health check-ups and screening tests appropriate for their age and risk factors. Being aware of and reporting any unusual symptoms or changes in their bodies to their healthcare provider. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and avoiding risk factors like smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. Understanding their family history and discussing it with their doctor to determine if genetic testing is appropriate.
