The exact causes of cancer are not fully understood, but it is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Common risk factors for cancer include tobacco use, exposure to certain chemicals and radiation, unhealthy diet and lifestyle choices, and certain infections.

Treatment options for cancer may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormone therapy, among others. The choice of treatment depends on several factors, such as the type and stage of cancer, the patient’s overall health, and their preferences.

Cancer treatment can be challenging and often requires a multidisciplinary approach involving a team of medical professionals, including oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, nurses, and other healthcare providers. However, advances in research and technology have led to significant improvements in cancer treatment outcomes and survival rates in recent years.
