First of all the diagnosis, thanks to many research projects, we now have a very accurate cancer marker for the detection of Nasopharyngeal Cancer. It mainly works by binding onto the mutated genes that causes the cancer. This procedure is relatively easy and it only needs small amount of fluid from the patient. If unfortunately the patient is diagnosed with cancer then the health professionals will judge and state the stage of the cancer. Furthermore, different stages of cancer will be treated with different methods and therapies.
Chlamydia infection in the cervix can spread to the rectum. Since men are different, they also experience different symptoms.

There is often vomiting and constipation with a lack of gas passage. The belly is typically bloated with a large, hard feeling.
Part One: Lung Cancer Case Manager American Sentinel University Part One: Lung Cancer Case Management Lung cancer patients and their caregivers can benefit from a case management plan that involves the continuum of care. This paper will illustrate the case management needs of lung cancer patients. A multidisciplinary team approach will ensure diagnosis and treatment outcomes are optimized. Population Illustration In the United States, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer related deaths and the second most diagnosed cancer. This type of cancer begins in the lungs and is divided into three main types; non-small cell, small cell and lung carcinoid tumor (American Cancer Society, 2012).
Other causes are severe constipation from a hard mass of stool, and narrowing of the intestine caused by diverticulitis or inflammatory bowel disease. The Symptoms Bowel Obstruction is: Cramping and belly pain that comes and goes. The pain can occur around or below the belly button, Vomiting, Bloating, Constipation and a lack of gas, if the intestine is completely blocked, and Diarrhea, if the intestine is partly blocked.

It appears as a firm, red nodule, or a flat lesion with a scaly, crusted surface. There is many ways to treat a Basal cell carcinoma with a good chance of success of 90% or more.

The doctor considers location, size, risk of scarring, and the person’s age, general health, and medical history. In conclusion I did my research paper on skin cancer.

THE IMPACT OF THE AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE ON CANCER Name: Jacqueline Oteng Professor: C. McMillian Class: Interpersonal comm. 1402 Date: 4/21/14 Abstract This paper is written to analyze the effect of the Affordable care act popularly on cancer. In this paper, the study was carefully sustain evidence were collected from other related sources to come into conclusion of how health care would benefit cancer patient. It purpose was to give the victims an affordable and universal health coverage which will also stop insurance companies from denying coverage for people with pre-existing conditions, or deciding not to cover people with high cost diseases and so on. Cancer, however, would be reduced by implementing the preventive measures of the health care people suffering from the disease could also afford to treat it without going broke.
