Warning Signs of bowel cancer

 Bowel cancer can cause you to have blood in your poo, a change in bowel habits, a lump inside your bowel which can cause an obstruction. Some people also suffer from weight loss as a result of these symptoms  

While bowel cancer rates are highest among people aged 85 to 89 in the UK, experts have warned rates are on the rise among adults under 50 .

Experts are concerned about a mystery rise in cancer among younger adults in general, an issue that has come into sharp focus following Kate Middleton's shock diagnosis last month.

The main symptoms of bowel cancer are unusual changes in your toilet habits, such as softer poo, diarrhoea or constipation.

Pooing more or less frequently than usual, blood in your stool or feeling like you need to poo even after you've just gone are other symptoms.

Like Ellie, people can also experience tummy pain or other symptoms like bloating, losing weight without trying or fatigue.

Anyone experiencing these symptoms for three weeks or more is advised to speak to their GP.

Bowel cancer symptoms can also be caused by other conditions, but it's important to get checked so the disease can be spotted as early as possible.

Cancer Research UK estimates that over half (54 per cent) of bowel cancer cases in the UK are preventable. 

Some of the risk factors for the disease are eating too little fiber, eating too much red meat and being obese.
