Anal Cancer: DON'T be embarrassed to get checked/discuss concerns...just because it's in an embarrassing place doesn't mean it's worth dying for!

When is a Hemorrhoid NOT a Hemorrhoid?
When it’s anal cancer!
It’s 2026 & in the patient support groups I’m still BLOWN AWAY (& annoyed!) at the amount of misdiagnosis/missed diagnosis still occurring daily & globally! IF IN DOUBT refer to colorectal! You could be saving a life.

[Fight Colorectal Cancer @FightCRC]

Thank you, @ibramxk, for sharing your story and helping elevate the conversation around #ColorectalCancer.

Behind him stand over 27,000 blue flags—each one representing a young person projected to be diagnosed with colorectal cancer in 2030.

These are people starting careers, raising families, finishing school, and planning their futures. Lives that will be forever changed by this disease far too soon.

Yet despite the growing crisis, colorectal cancer still has no dedicated federal research funding source.

This rise demands real investment in research.

📣 Take action: Call your members of Congress and ask them to support the creation of a Colorectal Cancer Research Program within the CDMRP to invest in lifesaving research.

I know you may feel embarrassed about going to your doctor with bum concerns (bleeding, feel a lump, itching etc) but please don’t be…your life may be depending on it.
Your doctor is a professional and wants to look after you… and will help you calmly and with dignity.

Do the visual exam-do the DARE-refer to colorectal if you’re unsure.

A history of Vulvar Cancer or pre-cancer VIN is a RED FLAG for potential Anal Cancer or pre-cancer AIN.
Adequate anal cancer screening is imperative for these patients.

[HPV Cancers Alliance @HPVAlliance]

Vulvar health is often overlooked—but it shouldn’t be. 💜

This Vulvar Awareness Month, we’re breaking myths and normalizing conversations about the vulva—because informed care saves lives.
