Finger Clubbing: An Overlooked Sign of Rising Lung Cancer Cases
Finger clubbing, a swelling of the fingertips, is a less-known symptom of lung cancer, highlighted by a former patient's experience and a 2012 study showing it affects 5–15% of patients. Rising lung cancer cases among young women (130% increase) and nonsmokers underscore the need for early detection...

Rising Cancer Deaths in the U.S. Despite Overall Decline
A new report reveals that while overall cancer deaths are declining in the U.S., deaths from several cancers—including melanoma, oral cancers, and those affecting bones, joints, pancreas, uterus, and liver—are increasing due to factors such as obesity, delayed diagnosis, and an aging population.
