 Loose stools or going more often can be caused by a number of factors related to cancer, including cancer treatments and certain cancers themselves: 

Cause	Explanation
Cancer treatments	Many cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, and bone marrow transplants, can cause diarrhea. These treatments can damage the lining of the gastrointestinal tract, making stools softer and more watery.
Certain cancers	Some cancers, such as pancreatic, gastric, and colorectal cancer, can cause diarrhea.
Infections	Cancer treatments can make you more susceptible to infections, which can cause diarrhea. Antibiotics used to treat some infections may also cause diarrhea.
Surgery	Surgery can cause diarrhea if certain parts of the intestine are removed.

Diarrhea can be a serious health problem, especially if it's severe, because your body doesn't absorb enough water and nutrients. Dehydration can be life-threatening, so you should tell your doctor or nurse if you have

People with cancer often develop diarrhea related to cancer treatments. The cells lining the gastrointestinal (GI) tract divide rapidly, so they can be easily damaged by treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, stem cell transplant or targeted therapy.

Chemotherapy uses anti cancer drugs to destroy cancer. The drugs circulate throughout the body in the bloodstream. Some chemotherapy drugs irritate the lining of your digestive system. So diarrhoea is a common side effect.

Red flag symptom of cancer you can only spot at night

Cancer affects 1 in 2 people in the UK and this symptom is only possible to spot at night.

Cancer is something that will affect a staggering 1 in 2 people in the UK and 1,000 people each day are diagnosed with it.

Sadly, though, only half of people with cancer live for 10 years or more after diagnosis which is why it's so important to spot as early as possible.

That's the reason medical experts are always urging people to be vigilant and listen to your body about the signs and symptoms of cancer that you might easily miss or mistake for something else - because early diagnosis and intervention gives you or your loved one the best possible chance of survival.

Cancer Research has issued a list of 23 common and easily overlooked symptoms that could indicate someone has cancer and should contact their doctor.

According to the NHS, 1 in 2 people will develop cancer in their lifetime and in the UK, the four most common types of cancer are breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer and bowel cancer.

But it isn't just smokers and red meat eaters who are at risk of cancer (although both of those have been proven to increase your risk of cancer), but there are various types of cancer that can develop in all sorts of ways in otherwise healthy people. It’s unclear why some types of cancer cause night sweats. This may happen because your body is trying to fight the cancer. Hormone level changes may also be a cause. When cancer causes a fever, your body may sweat excessively as it tries to cool down.Of course, night sweats can be a sign of something else, such as exercising before bed, drinking hot drinks in bed, drinking too much alcohol or setting your heating too high.But if it has started happening suddenly, it could be one of the 23 key red flag symptoms of cancer to watch out for, according to Cancer Research UK.

There are 23 common symptoms of cancer to look out for according to Cancer Research UK, which are:

• very heavy night sweating
• Fatigue
• Unexplained bleeding or bruising
• Unexplained pain or acne
• Unexplained weight loss
• An unusual lump or swelling anywhere on your body
• A new mole, or a change to a mole
• Skin changes or a sore that won't heal
• Croaky voice, hoarse voice or a cough that won't go away
• Coughing up blood
• Difficulty swallowing
• Breathlessness

• Persistent heartburn or indigestion
• Unusual changes to the size or feeling of your breast

• Persistent bloating
• Loss of appetite
• A change in bowel habit such as constipation, looser stool or going more often

And there is one type of symptom you can only spot at night: heavy sweating.

• 
  
• 
  
• Blood in your stool
• Unexpected vaginal bleeding including after sex, between periods or post-menopause
• Blood in your urine
• Problems urinating

The NHS says about spotting cancer: "It's important to be aware of any new or worrying symptoms."

Anti-inflammatory' citrus fruits could strengthen blood vessels and 'prevent' blood clots

Anti-inflammatory' citrus fruits could strengthen blood vessels and 'prevent' blood clots

Citrus fruits like lemons offer promising anti-clotting effects backed by research.

British Heart Foundation: Understanding blood clots

Blood clots can lay the groundwork for serious health problems, ranging from heart attacks to strokes. While medicines called anti-coagulants are great at dissolving the harmful clots, citruses could also have a few tricks up their sleeves. An expert has shared that the small fruits could erect a barrier against the gel-like clumps.

From boosting your levels of vitamin C to offering anti-cancer powers, the colourful foods are packed with various health benefits.

What’s more, Nataly Komova, RD and fitness expert at JustCBD, shared that these popular fruits could reduce your risk of harmful blood clots.

Komova said: “Citrus fruits, such as oranges, lemons, and grapefruits can help to strengthen blood vessels and prevent blood clots.

“They are rich in vitamin C, which is an antioxidant that helps to strengthen blood vessels and prevent damage to their walls. This can reduce the risk of blood clots forming in the first place.

“Additionally, citrus fruits contain flavonoids, which are plant compounds that have anti-inflammatory and anti-clotting properties.

“These flavonoids can help to reduce inflammation in the body, which can also lower the risk of blood clots.”

Don’t just take the expert’s word for it, as research published in the Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences also backs this claim.

The research team decided to evaluate the effects of lemon on different blood parameters and clotting.

Previous evidence had suggested that the yellow fruit offers anti-clotting and clot-breaking properties.

What is Septic Pneumonia? Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that can result from an infection anywhere in the body. 

1. Infection in the lungs, or pneumonia, is one of the most common causes of sepsis.

Bacterial infections are responsible for most cases of septic pneumonia, but viral respiratory infections like COVID-19 and the flu can also be a cause.3

A non-rebreather mask (NRB, non-rebreather, non-rebreather facemask, etc.) is a device used in medicine to assist in the delivery of oxygen therapy. A NRB requires that the patient can breathe unassisted, but unlike a low-flow nasal cannula, the NRB allows for the delivery of higher concentrations of oxygen.
