How to prevent pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic cancer is the most deadly disease among other types of cancers. It is difficult to detect it at an early stage and it is often diagnosed at an advanced level. It spreads quickly and has the highest fatality rate. There is no definite way to prevent pancreatic cancer. But there are a few recommendations that might reduce your risk.
- Quit smoking: One of the most widely known risk factors that cause at least 20-30% pancreatic cancer is smoking. If you can’t quit smoking, you should consult with your doctor for effective measures including treatment and nicotine substitution therapy. You can also take the help of nicotine cessation support groups to quit smoking.
Prevention is better than cure and prevention needs general awareness. So be aware and follow these preventive measures.
