A 27-year-old woman was just diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. By 2030, colorectal cancer is projected to be the leading cancer killer under 50. As providers, we play a vital role in encouraging early evaluation and trusting when something feels off. Encourage screenings! #getscreened

Been thinking a lot about how we encourage patients to prioritize self-care. Sometimes, itβs not a spa dayβitβs a colonoscopy. Early screening saves lives. Letβs keep normalizing the conversation. π©π½ββοΈπ©Ί #SelfCareSunday #GetChecked #ColonCancerScreening

Iβve been seeing more patients lately with fissures that just wonβt heal. Itβs not always the tearβitβs the muscle spasm that keeps it open. These cases remind me how important it is to look beyond the surface when discomfort lingers. Thought I'd share!
