Overall for teenagers and children (ages 0 to 19), in the United States, the commonest types of cancers are childhood cancers, which are mainly leukemic conditions (cases of cancer of blood or bone marrow); brain and central nervous system cancers, which include cancers of the spinal cord and neck; and lymphomas, which are non-cancerous growths of lymph nodes. Leukemia usually takes ten years or more to develop. Cancer of the lymph glands usually takes between five and ten years.
Most people afflicted with these types of malignancies experience no symptoms. Less than one percent of those stricken with different types of cancers have had symptoms suggesting their presence for more than a year. Some symptoms to be aware of are: bone pain or fractures, unexplained weight loss, persistent coughing or sore throat, persistent head aches, and abdominal pain. However, some of these symptoms may point to other diseases or to normal, undiagnosed diseases such as appendicitis, diverticulitis, polyps, or diverticulitis. If you or someone you know has experienced one or more of these symptoms, see your physician immediately.
Three types of bone cancers are common: osteosarcoma, osteophilic acid pneumonia, and endosteal carcinoma. Osteosarcoma is the most widespread bone cancer in the United States. It affects adults over 65. Two of three cases of osteosarcoma involve the ophthalmic region, with the third occurring in the jaw.
Two of the most common cancers among young adults (aged 20 to 29 years) are leukemia and lymphoma. Leukemia usually affects children and is usually associated with genetics. This disease is highly treatable if caught early enough. Lymphoma usually occurs in people who have a family history of the disease, but it is also possible to contract the disease at an unknown age.
Some of the less common types of childhood cancers include bone cancers that occur in the thighs (thick skin), the hips, and the pelvis. These types of bone cancers often occur among younger children whose immune systems are still developing. Infection-prone pelvic tumors are another issue that frequently emerges in women who are older. These can be either benign (with no risk for malignancy) or malignant (cancerous). Some of the risk factors for malignant tumors include being a woman with a family history of cancer or receiving radiation therapy.
The two most common cancer types in adults are melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer. Melanoma is the most common type of non-skin cancer among all types of cancer. While nearly all melanomas are not harmful, there are some types that can be potentially life threatening. In fact, most melanomas are malignant, and if left unchecked, they can spread to other parts of your body. The most dangerous types of malignancies are non-melanoma skin cancer and melanoma papulosum.
As you can see from the types of cancer discussed above, many different types of childhood cancers exist. These cancers are both preventable and treatable. However, many adults are still suffering from some of these same cancers as children. This is why research is still being done to find new ways to help improve the survival rates of childhood cancers.
Even though research has found cures and treatments for many types of childhood cancers, there are ways to improve the survival rates of these types of ailments. Most doctors recommend that young adults start getting regular screenings for cancer when they are still young. Screenings not only catch things like prostate and melanoma that may have already spread, but it also gives you information about your health. If you are in your twenties or thirties, you should be getting annual checksup with your doctor. This way, he or she can catch any other potential problems that you may have not seen.
