That's pretty rare actually. Even if you have a family history of cancer (like I do) you still don't have to worry until you're about 35, or if you're really paranoid then 30.
2 :
The biggest single risk factor for colon cancer is age; the risk increases as you get older. More than 80% of people diagnosed with colon cancer are over 60. I would assume the answer to your question is almost never
3 :
The incidence of colon cancer is quite high in this country. About 2% occur in men under 25 and they are usually in the rectum or anus and are due to HPV. This number appears to be rising, but it is still uncommon.
4 :
Almost never. If you are bleeding that is almost certainly from hemmorhoids - stop whiping so hard and put white zinc baby diaper creme on a couple times a week, zaps them totally! And if you are constipated see a good HMO chiropractor to get your lumbar spine adjusted so you have normal parystalsis again.

I had colon cancer at 46yrs old and had no symptoms. They said I probably had it for 5-7 years based on the size. The thing with cancer is it does not discriminate anyone or any age. Check out the National Institute of Cancer for more information. I was very lucky and they were able to remove all of it, along with 12 inches of my colon. Hope this website helps.
