Cancer (Vippuruthi Noi)

Cancer refers to diseases involving abnormal cell growth that can invade or spread through blood and lymph systems. Symptoms include lumps, bleeding, weight loss, and bowel changes. With over 100 types, cancers are named after the organ, tissue, or cell of origin. Ancient Siddhars described such illnesses as Vippuruthinoipadalam (Carcinoma-like conditions) in their classical medical texts.
