A member asked:
For the past two months i've had changes in bowel movements, lots of pressure, fullness and upwards movement of food. afraid of cancer, when to worry?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not worry - see Dr.: These symptoms sound concerning and you should see your doctor since they are persistent. You don't need to worry, but do need to have these issues evaluated. Cancer would not be the first possible cause on the list, though.
