Carcinoma cancer
Hello respected Doctors
Greetings. I need to ask why cancer has become so common in our country? During our grand parents time hardly used to see anyone suffering from such disease. Even if anyone used to then the Age confined like may be 85 onwards. And why Google says everything is Cancer for all symptoms. Sorry to bother by my weird questions.
Thank You.

Cancer was always there. It’s just that we are detecting more and more cancer at an early stage with the advancement in diagnostic procedures. Screening programs are underway which helps detect cancer at early curable stage. Also there is increased awareness about cancer in general population. As for as Google is concerned, cancer is a great masquerader that’s why any symptom could be a harbinger of cancer. But Google is not the an ideal platform to look for medical help. It’s better to consult an expert and allay your worries.
Next Steps
Be aware, take part in screening programs and consult with an expert
