28. Bloating

Certain foods such as beans can make us bloated, but if you can’t blame it on a meal, experiencing unexplained bloating on a regular basis could translate to stomach, colon, pancreatic, and ovarian cancers.

However, don’t rush into making any medical assumptions. Just call your doctor instead, if your bloating doesn’t seem to go away.

29. Gastrointestinal issues

Our digestive system is linked to many things, including our moods. Taking proper care of it could make a huge difference between you ending up in the ER or not. Gastrointestinal issues are also linked to colon cancer. Sadly, colon cancer is a type of cancer that has way too few signs and symptoms.

Colon cancer is often diagnosed in advanced stages because its symptoms are mild. If you think that something’s wrong with your bowel movements, visit your doctor to make sure that you’re not at risk of developing colon cancer.

30. Facial puffiness

This sign is pretty common, especially if you tend to consume salty foods regularly. Alcohol consumption can be a factor too. However, if that puffiness is more pronounced than usual, go to your doctor’s office ASAP.

According to recent research, puffiness in the face could be a sign of a tumor. How so? Tumors actually restrict blood flow in the area, as a result, puffiness shows up. Don’t ignore this sign, as innocent and harmless as it seems, it could mean tumor development.
