eFit for Individuals & Caregivers: Cancer
Cancer starts with small changes in the body when cells grow and multiply too much and form a lump in the body called a tumour. Malignant (cancerous) tumour cells are able to spread to other parts of the body. Benign (non-cancerous) tumour cells do not spread and are not usually dangerous.
