Al Marsad newspaper: Lung cancer often causes a persistent cough, and bowel cancer usually causes changes when you go to the toilet.

However, in some cases, the disease may present with no symptoms at all or the signs may be “hard to detect”.

Flatulence.

– stomach ache.

Constipation or diarrhea.

Feeling sick.

Feeling bloated.

– Anorexia.
