What you should know about Colorectal Cancer ....
Colorectal Cancer is the third leading cause of cancer related deaths in the United States in both men and women. Colorectal cancer is a significant health concern for Kentuckians given that both incidence and death rates from colorectal cancer are higher in Kentucky than in the United States.
If colorectal cancer is detected early, before symptoms begin, it is 85 to 95 percent curable. A preventive health screening and early detection can save your life.
