As the cancer infiltrates around the circumference of the intestinal wall, the intestinal cavity is narrowed, especially at the junction of rectosigmoid colon, which is mostly a narrow type of hard cancer, and it is very easy to cause obstruction. Patients with advanced rectal cancer, due to long-term chronic consumption of the disease, will appear some systemic cachexia. In addition, unexplained anemia may appear. Patients must pay attention to timely examination and treatment in professional hospitals. 4.In the late stage, bowel cancer often invades the surrounding tissues and organs, such as bladder and prostate and other adjacent tissues, causing urinary frequency, urinary urgency and difficulty in urination.
