March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month and screening and prevention are so important for this disease. Doctorpedia is proud to work with engaging and empathetic doctors who are passionate about patient education. If you or someone you know fits the screening criteria for colorectal cancer (men ages 45 and older who are average risk) they should get screened with a colonoscopy.
In this video, colon and rectal surgeon Dr. Ray Scott Daugherty explains that occasionally patients will be diagnosed with hemorrhoids but actually have anal or rectal cancer. It's important to get evaluated if you have any perianal, perirectal, or anorectal discomfort and bleeding.
We are building doctor-led video journeys for all of the major cancer types. Check out the video journeys and the latest news and developments in cancer on our Cancer Channel: [ Ссылка ]
