5. **Skin Changes:** New moles or changes in existing ones may indicate skin cancer.
6. **Persistent Cough/Hoarseness:** Lasting coughs might be signs of lung or throat cancer.
7. **Difficulty Swallowing:** Could signal throat or esophageal cancer.
8. **Unusual Bleeding:** Blood in stool, urine, or unexpected vaginal bleeding needs immediate attention.

10. **Persistent Pain:** Unexplained pain could be linked to bone or ovarian cancer.
11. **Loss of Appetite:** Sudden appetite loss may signal digestive system cancers.
12. **Mouth Sores:** Sores that don’t heal might mean oral cancer.
