Colorectal Cancer (CRC) Can Kill You, But It Doesn't Have To!

Getting screened if you are above the age of 45 is important, regardless if you are showing symptoms. Additionally, if you are under 45 and display symptoms, routine screening for CRC directly impacts the number of long-term CRC survivors.

Don't ignore the symptoms of CRC:

We can decrease colorectal cancer in Wisconsin.  Screening can detect colorectal cancer and catch it at the earliest possible stage, thereby improving the success of treatment and reducing mortality from the disease.

​Common symptoms:
  • Change in 💩 habits
  • Blood during bowel movement
  • Diarrhea or constipation
  • Feeling that the bowel does not empty all the way
  • Abdominal pain, aches, or cramps that don't go away
  • Having weight loss and you don't know why
“Screening tests [for colorectal cancer] can find precancerous polyps, so they can be removed before turning into cancer,” says the CDC.
