Bruises do not know from what
Do you have the impression that your body is bruising out of nowhere? You don’t remember when you hit yourself, and that distinctive mark is there. Besides, it doesn’t take much to get them to come into existence. Hitting a table can actually cause a bruise, experts say, but some blood cancers also make them appear all over the place.
Sudden fatigue
Each of us sometimes has a bad day. He gets tired faster. This is perfectly normal. But sudden fatigue, a drop in energy, no matter if you get enough sleep, could be a sign of leukemia or lymphoma.
Lump, swelling
Experts caution not to underestimate the tumor or the swelling on the body.
“Most malignant breast lumps are not painful, and sometimes it is difficult for a woman to tell a cancerous from a noncancerous lump, so the breast needs to be examined,” said Dr. Beth Overmoyer, quoted by EatThis.com.
Itchy mole
Watch for changes in the skin, especially moles. If they change color and start itching or bleeding, this could be a sign of something serious.
“We believe that some of these irritations – itching, bleeding – are a sign that the body is actually starting to recognize the cancer and attacking it a little, which causes irritation to the lesion on the skin,” said Dr. Elizabeth Buchbinder, an oncologist at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute at Boston.

“But it doesn’t always indicate cancer, and there are many other causes,” concludes the doctor.
