Do I have Colon cancer


Do I have Colon cancer?
I have had a feeling of full bowels for about a month and a half now. When i go to the bathroom i still feel like i have a full bowel. It is annoying. But here is the thing I am only 16, have found no blood in the stool, there is a lil mucus in the stool, and no pain to speak of anywhere. My family has no history of colon cancer but im hoping im not the first. Please help me.

That's a tricky one - you may have diverticulitis and diverticulosis. See a doctor.

yes you do you should probably go check that out you can die from it. people with this cancer just have to get a doctor to deal with it but you are fine it will pass hopefully but if not you will die and never see another day well good luck in the future :)

why don't you ask a doctor instead of people on the internet who most likely don't have medical experience and could either tell you that you do have it and you freak out, or tell you that you don't have it and you could die unexpectedly, just ask a doctor, or someone who went to medical school, okay dude?

At the age of 16 the chance of your having colon cancer is virtually nil. It tends to affect the over-50s. Diverticular disease is also something that affects aging people. It sounds like it could be irritable bowel syndrome. It could also possibly be a food intolerance, which you can develop in your teens. Wheat or dairy are the usual suspects. Inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's or UC) are usually more severe than you describe, and there is blood. Nobody on here can help you really. You need to *see* a doctor for that!

16 and worrying about Colon cancer?Wow... dude worry about real things that could happen to. Car accidents, drug OD, ect ect. Basically unheard of until you reach at least your late 20s. And even then it doesnt become a likley cancer until a person is in their 40s.
