During a colonoscopy, doctors often find polyps. 🔎

Polyps are small growths in the colon that usually cause no symptoms. Most are harmless — but some can slowly turn into colon cancer if left alone.

Here’s the powerful part:
👉 A colonoscopy can find and remove polyps before they ever become cancer.

That’s why screening matters. Colon cancer is one of the most preventable cancers, yet it’s still one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths — largely because people skip screening.

Screening saves lives. If you’re 45+ or have risk factors, don’t put it off. We're here to help ➡

🩺 Is It Vascular? Here are some signs you shouldn't ignore.

Your blood flow plays a huge role in how your body feels every day. When circulation isn’t working the way it should, your body often sends warning signs—especially in your legs and feet. 🦶

🚩 Common vascular symptoms include:
• Leg pain or cramping when walking
• Swelling in the legs, ankles, or feet
• Heaviness, aching, or fatigue in the legs
• Varicose or spider veins
• Cold, numb, or tingling feet
• Skin color changes or wounds that heal slowly

These symptoms may be more than “just getting older” or “being on your feet all day.” They could be signs of an underlying vascular condition—and early evaluation matters.

We have the expert care and advanced treatment options you need
to diagnose and treat vascular conditions—so you can move more comfortably and confidently.

📅 Schedule your vascular evaluation: https://www.advancedsurgicaltechnology.com/contact/
