About cancer

Cancer is a disease that affect the cell. We know that cell is the body's basic unit. Cancer occurs when cells become abnormal and divide without control. As a basic unit of body, cell formalize tissue that formalize organ and the body.Like all other organs of the body, the colon and rectum are made up of many types of cells. Normally, cells divide to produce more cells only when the body needs them. This orderly process helps keep us healthy.
But this can happen: cells keep dividing when new cells are not needed; then a mass of tissue forms. This mass of extra tissue called a growth or tumor. It can be benign or malignant.
Benign tumors are not cancer. It is a mild one. They can usually be removed and, in most cases, they do not come back. Most important, cells from benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body. Benign tumors are rarely a threat to life.
