Cancer

What is cancer

Cancer is a type of disease where cells grow out of control, divide and invade other tissues. In a person without cancer, cell division is under control. … If the abnormal cells do not invade, but just divide and swell up their original tissue, this is not called “cancer“. It is called a tumour.

When cancer begins it produces no symptoms so always please have a health check .
