Colon cancer, also known as colorectal cancer, is a type of cancer that begins in the large intestine (colon) or the rectum. It often starts as polyps, which are small, benign growths that can become cancerous over time. Risk factors include age, family history, certain genetic conditions, and lifestyle factors such as diet and smoking. Symptoms may include changes in bowel habits, abdominal pain, and blood in the stool. Early detection through screening, such as colonoscopy, is crucial for effective treatment. Treatment options typically involve surgery to remove the tumor, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, depending on the stage and location of the cancer.
