See a doctor: You need to see a doctor for a full evaluation. If you have cancer (unlikely at your age but not impossible) you need treatment. If you don't have it, you need to address that anxiety. Don't let fear rule your life please.

Fear of cancer.: Is this just a generalized fear that you tend to have or you experiencing specific symptoms that are raising your level of concern. If this is a long held fear & there is no family history, risk exposures or worrisome symptoms then consider cognitive behavioral therapy. Medical evaluation is in order if you do have any serious symptoms of disease.
