March is Colore**al Cancer Awareness Month, a vital time to highlight the importance of early detection and prompt action.

Our infographic from the Colore**al Unit at Wits Donald Gordon Medical Centre outlines key alarm symptoms that should never be ignored:
〰️ Persistent change in bowel habit (such as diarrhoea, constipation, or narrowed stools)
〰️ Unexplained, significant weight loss
〰️ Recurring re**al bleeding or blood in/on the stool

These signs may indicate colore**al cancer or other conditions requiring medical attention. Early investigation can be lifesaving. Don’t ignore the signs – speak to your doctor today.

For specialist colore**al care, trust the expertise of the Colore**al Unit at Wits Donald Gordon Medical Centre.

March is Colore**al Cancer Awareness Month. Early detection significantly improves outcomes for this highly treatable disease.

The Colore**al Unit at Wits Donald Gordon Medical Centre recommends screening from age 45. The Faecal Immunochemical Test (FIT) is a simple, at-home test that detects hidden blood in the stool – an important early sign of colore**al cancer or polyps.

Early screening can help prevent progression and may avoid the need for more invasive procedures.

Do not wait for symptoms. Consult your healthcare provider about screening options or contact us for guidance.
