Colorectal cancer is rising in India. Early detection and the right treatment can save lives. Yet, many people fear colorectal cancer surgery due to myths and wrong information.

As a leading colorectal cancer surgeon in Pune, Dr. Manoj Dongare believes in spreading awareness. Let’s clear some common myths vs. facts related to colorectal cancer surgery.

🧠 Myth 1: Colorectal cancer only happens in old age

Fact:
Though more common after age 50, colorectal cancer can affect younger people too. Lifestyle changes, unhealthy diet, and genetics can increase the risk in those under 40 as well.

⚕️ Myth 2: Surgery spreads cancer

Fact:
This is a major myth in India. Cancer surgery, when done by a trained specialist like Dr. Manoj Dongare, does not cause cancer to spread. In fact, surgery is often the best way to remove cancer completely.

🚫 Myth 3: Colostomy is always needed

Fact:
Not all patients require a colostomy bag after surgery. With advanced laparoscopic and robotic techniques, surgeons can often reconnect the bowel. Dr. Dongare explains every case individually to reduce fear.

🏥 Myth 4: Recovery after colorectal surgery is very difficult

Fact:
With modern surgical care, recovery is quicker and less painful. Most patients walk within a day or two. Dr. Dongare provides a personalised recovery plan to help patients heal faster and return to normal life.

🇮🇳 Myth 5: Good cancer treatment is not available in India
