what kind of abdominal pain is associated with colon cancer?
I have read that abdominal pain and discomfort is associated with colon cancer, but what exactly does that mean? Would the pain come and go? Is it a sharp pain, a severe pain, etc?
If it was cancer related, would it be persistant or would it go away? And exactly where would it be located?
Yeah, I'm afraid I might have it. I had very low abdominal tenderness for the past 5 days. No pain at all, but just tender/sore. I'm worried about it because my dad just passed away from it 2 months ago. He was 91. I'm only 29, but I also know that doesn't technically matter.

Wait, are you afraid that you might have it?
Because I went through the same thing and I honestly had no idea what was up with my stomach for years, and I thought it could be colon cancer.
But the symproms would be far much worse.
You may just have gastritis, and or IBS. It's something you should tell your doctor straight away. If the pain is unbearable and causes you to feel like you're going to pass out, it may be IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) so talk to him a.s.a.p so you can get whatever it is treated so you can live without that pain. if you go very long with a condition that's not treated, it can rarely, but aslo turn to colon cancer.
Don't be afraid though, your doctor should completely explain everything ^-^
Hope i helped u
