Aloha KHC Kane!
No-Shave November is just around the corner. During the entire month of November we will be posting important men’s health and wellness tips and reminders - especially tips related to colon cancer screening. Did you know the top 3 cancers for men are Lung, Prostate, and Colon. Early detection is key to thriving and surviving:
First colon cancer screens should be at age 45. Are you overdue?
- Screen options include stool tests, colonoscopy, flexible sigmoidoscopy, and CT colonography.
- Blood test for prostate cancer antigens starting at age 55 or if you have symptoms
- Talk to your doctor about frequent urination, weak interrupted flow, discomfort urinating, and blood in your urine.
- Share a family history of cancer with your doctor.
Koolauloa Health Center is always accepting new patients (with and without insurance). Call 293-9231 for an appointment.
Hope to see you soon! Mahalo.
