Cancer is a serious disease that can have a significant impact on a person's appearance.

However, it can be quite difficult to recognize the disease based on external symptoms.

But any changes are a reason to contact doctors to reduce the risks of serious consequences.

Oncologist Andrey Isaev-Apostolov explained in an interview with Doctor Peter what exactly you need to pay attention to in order to immediately seek help.

As the specialist noted, the first symptom is related to weight.

Some people quickly gain weight, while others look thin and emaciated.

There are tumors that can lead to facial asymmetry or changes in skin color, such as yellowing.

The signs do not end there. The fact is that a number of drugs can lead to hair loss. It may be that after therapy, the hair may change structure or even color.
