Recurring Colds and Fatigue May Signal Cancer, Russian Oncologist Warns

Russian oncologist Rasul Akhmayev says recurring colds, persistent fatigue, and unexplained weight loss may signal cancer, urging medical consultation if symptoms persist. He notes tumors can develop while patients feel healthy, so unusual changes should not be ignored. Frequent illness from minor viruses may indicate a weakened immune system, while constant tiredness and appetite loss can stem from tumor effects on the body. Rapid weight loss of 10-15 kilograms within two months, as seen in pancreatic cancer, warrants evaluation. Symptoms vary by tumor type, such as severe night sweats in lymphoma. Akhmayev emphasizes early detection improves treatment outcomes, advising checkups for persistent or worsening symptoms.
