Colon Cancer & Prevention: How Does Screening Help

Colon cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in both men and women. Most colorectal cancers start in cells that line the inside of the colon. Screening before you start seeing symptoms helps root out polyps well before they get a chance to become cancerous. Moreover, the earlier cancer is found, the more effective the treatment will be. Regular colonoscopy screenings can help prevent colorectal cancer, so please get in touch with Digestive Disease Specialists, Inc. for your colonoscopy in OKC.
