Colorectal Cancer Screening

If you're 45 or older, it's essential to discuss colorectal cancer screening options with your doctor, which may include a stool test or colonoscopy. Preparation for a colonoscopy involves dietary restrictions the day before, and screenings are generally recommended every ten years unless there's a family history of cancer or other concerns. Recognizing symptoms like blood in stool or unexplained weight loss is crucial for timely medical attention.
