if you had colon or rectal cancer, would you ever have normal size, shape and color stools, or would they always be thin. I sometimes have thin stools (not anywhere near as thin as a pencil, but sometimes a little thinner than usual). For the most part, I have the same, normal size stool, but if i ever see that it is a little thinner, i get nervous. any advice? thanks! ..also, I have never seen blood in my stool

Hi, I am a guy, and i am thinking about getting a tattoo, but i am not sure where to get it. I plan on getting a breast cancer ribbon because my mom just got through the fight. I am thinking about on my chest. As in right about my left nipple. I was also thinking about getting two smaller ones on the underside of each wrist. Which spot do you think would look good, and what spots hurt the least? Thank you so much in advance

I noticed before a small lump the size of a pea on my breast… it isnt within the tissue… it seems to be right beneath the skin… at first i thought it was a cyst or something but it doesnt hurt…. I forgot about it, but today i noticed it again… and it is a little bit bigger…. I was wondering would breast cancer be within the tissue of the breast or could it be right beneathe the skin also…
i dont want to think the worst… but this has been on my mind all morning.

i'm 14.
i found a very tiny bump under my armpit and it's been there for about a year or a year and half.
lately, i've noticed that it's gotten bigger
and now it hurts a little bit.
i've been told that you can get pimples all over ur body and in random places (i've had one before) but i know for sure that this isn't a pimple.
it's a tiny bump when i raise my arm.
could this be a sign of breast cancer?
