Cancer may affect all parts of the body: skeletal, muscular, and internal organ tissues. Whether you have been diagnosed with lung cancer, stomach cancer or liver cancer, or cancer of the colon or bladder cancer or prostate cancer, treatment for cancer is necessary to help prevent the cancer from spreading or metastasizing.

The most common type of cancer treatments is surgery or cancer therapy or chemotherapy to remove the cancerous growth.  Treatment options depend on where the cancer is and how long it’s been there. Cancer treatment centers and cancer specialists or oncologist determine that through a variety of clinical tests and exams.

Chemotherapy is a process where drugs are injected into the body to kill cancerous cell growth.  Chemotherapy is designed to target and destroy cancer cells, but also has a detrimental effect on healthy cells in the body as well, commonly resulting in side effects such as nausea, vomiting, hair loss, and fatigue. 

Radiation therapy is a type of x-ray that aims a high powered beam of energy to the part of the body where cancer growth has occurred. This is an external procedure, and is often utilized prior to surgery to help shrink cancer cells, tumors and growths.
