Uncovering the secrets of the causes of rectal cancer

In recent years, the incidence of rectal cancer has been increasing. Only by understanding the causes of rectal cancer can we achieve early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment. The following will reveal the mysterious causes of rectal cancer.

1. Inflammatory intestinal diseases are one of the "masterminds" causing rectal cancer. Diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease can damage the intestinal mucosa, causing ulcer repair and proliferation, and sudden canceration during the formation of granulation tissue, thus causing rectal cancer.

2. Genetic factors are also one of the main causes of rectal cancer, which will increase the incidence of rectal cancer. About 5-10% of patients have rectal cancer in their family. It can be seen that this disease is caused by heredity increasing the susceptibility to rectal cancer. Once exposed to a certain cause, it will intensify the disease.

3. A high-fat, high-protein and low-fiber diet will also increase the incidence of colorectal cancer. According to surveys, the incidence of colorectal cancer is extremely low in areas where low-fat, low-protein and high-fiber rough food is the main food. On the contrary, high-fat and high-protein diets will increase the secretion of bile acid, thereby inducing the occurrence of colorectal cancer.
