A group of experts have issued a warning for people to be on alert for changes in their toilet habits that could be a sign of bowel cancer.
Bowel cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the UK and the second biggest, with almost 43,000 diagnosed with the disease each year, according to Bowel Cancer UK.
While it can be fatal, the disease is treatable and curable if caught early due to warning signs. These symptoms tend to be overlooked by people as signs of other illnesses, like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or diarrhoea.
