#Earlyonsetcancer

A recent research breakthrough offers new insight into why colorectal cancer cases are climbing among younger adults, a trend that has alarmed public health officials worldwide, including in Thailand. For years, scientists have noted a disturbing shift: while colorectal cancer rates decline among older adults, young people are increasingly being diagnosed, often at later—more dangerous—stages. The implications are significant for Thailand, where cancer remains one of the top causes of death, and awareness of early-onset colorectal cancer is still developing.
