flag A UK farmer, diagnosed with bowel cancer at 33, urges young adults to seek help for symptoms like blood in stool, stressing early detection.

flag A 34-year-old farmer, James Rogers, diagnosed with bowel cancer at 33, is urging young people to seek medical attention for symptoms like blood in stool or changes in bowel habits. flag After noticing blood during a holiday and testing positive on a faecal immunochemical test, he was diagnosed with a tumor and affected lymph nodes, requiring surgery and chemotherapy. flag Though he had similar symptoms two-and-a-half years earlier with a negative test, doctors believe a precancerous polyp may have been missed. flag Now in remission after a clear scan, Rogers stresses early detection, especially as bowel cancer cases rise among younger adults in the UK. flag Experts say poor diet, obesity, and inactivity may contribute, and emphasize that early diagnosis through at-home tests improves outcomes.
