and factors
👉Family history: A person’s risk doubles if a direct relative has previously had the disease. There is an even greater risk if more than one relative has had colorectal cancer.
👉Genetics: Individuals with inherited disorders such as familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), where an individual is prone to polyp formation, have a higher risk of developing colorectal cancer.
👉Colorectal polyps or inflammatory bowel diseases: A history of polyps or inflammatory bowel disease, where the bowel is inflamed for many years, increases the risk of colorectal cancer.
👉Age: Although a person can develop colorectal cancer at any age, the risk increases greatly with age. Over 90% of colorectal cases are diagnosed in patients over the age of 50.
👉Lifestyle: A sedentary lifestyle is associated with a higher risk of colorectal cancer. Studies have also linked obesity, lack of exercise, smoking and excessive alcohol consumption to a greater risk of colorectal cancer.
👉Potential protective agents: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as aspirin, have been associated with a reduced risk of colorectal cancer. A healthy, fibre containing diet and hormone replacement therapy in women are also possible protective factors.

Colon cancer is also called as colorectal cancer. Colorectal cancer is caused by the abnormal growth of epithelial cells which form the lining of the colon or re**um. These small growths (known as polyps) are often benign, although some have the potential to develop and become cancerous. It is estimated that up to two thirds of colorectal polyps are pre-malignant and associated with a risk of colorectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer might not cause symptoms right away, but if it does, it may cause one or more of these symptoms:

👉A change in bowel habits, such as diarrhea, constipation, or narrowing of the stool, that lasts for more than a few days
👉A feeling that you need to have a bowel movement that is not relieved by having one
👉Rectal bleeding with bright red blood
👉Blood in the stool, which may make the stool look dark
👉Cramping or abdominal (belly) pain
👉Weakness and fatigue
👉Unintended weight loss
👉Colorectal cancers can often bleed into the digestive tract.
👉Sometimes the blood can be seen in the stool or make it look darker, but often the stool looks normal.
👉But over time, the blood loss can build up and can lead to low red blood cell counts (anemia).

COPD stands for chronic obstructive pulmonary (lung) disease. COPD is a term applied to a family of diseases that includes emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema due to alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. It usually progresses gradually, causing limited airflow in and out of the lungs.

COPD adds to the work of the heart. Diseased lungs might reduce the amount of oxygen that goes to the blood. High blood pressure in blood vessels from the heart to the lungs makes it difficult for the heart to pump. Lung disease can also cause the body to produce too many red blood cells, which might make the blood thicker and harder to pump.

Patients who have COPD with low oxygen levels might develop an enlarged heart (cor pulmonale). This condition weakens the heart and causes increased shortness of breath, and swelling in the legs and feet.
