The most common cancer symptoms in men

Men are more prone to fall prey of cancer than women. It is not because of the biological difference that there is between the male and the female body, but it is due to the mind set. Men would postpone going to the doctor and would see if the medical concern can be fixed on its own.

Yes its true that men always show some hesitation in going to doctors, but it only wont do the cause of cancer. For my knowledge its true that women are more affected by cancer than men in many ways. for eg: breast cancer.

men can get breast cancer also. more men than you think. cancer can't distinquish between sexes. cancer hits every sex at any time. you can help yourself by staying healthy and strong. but even healthy and strong people can get cancer. the really only thing we can do is to help find a cure for all cancers.

Men more me suffer from skin cancer than women due to the fact that they more men work and spend a comparatively larger time in the sun. It is more essential for them to use sunscreens regularly.

Skin cancer is to most common it affects people all around the world,
But it shows up in much higher levels at 'sun baked' countries..

It's probably because men are less likely to wear sunscreen

Also, in 'sun baked countries' they probably are so used to the sun that the don't take it seriously. They probably don't realize that the sun is doing so much damage on a daily basis. I find that a lot of people think if they 'sun bath' they should wear a sunscreen but if they just go on about their day they don't wear one not realizing that just going outside shopping, to work, etc. they are getting sun damage.

i don't think men think anything can hurt them. it is the macho intelligence. that is why they have women to make sure they eat healthy, drink a lot of water, use sunscreen, excercise, and make them into caring loving men!!!lol
