TLDR from the post itself. No: Colorectal cancer is going up in young people. Yes: Various kinds of cancer are going up in later generations. (Definitely at younger ages, possibly at all ages.) Reminder This blog endorses colorectal cancer screening. We don’t yet know if colonoscopies are better than other methods of screening (sigmoidoscopy, stool tests), but we do know that screening is better than not screening. When caught early, CRC is highly treatable, often with only surgery (no chemotherapy or radiation) and a return to normal activities within a couple weeks. |
