The exact reason of colorectal cancer is unknown. But there are certain
factors that make cancer more likely. They are age, colorectal polyps, family
history, genetic alterations, personal history, drug effects, cigarette smoking
etc. Not all polyps become cancerous, but nearly all colon cancers start as
polyps.
Eating a diet which is low in fiber is also a risk factor for developing
colorectal cancer. Research shows that women with a history of cancer of the
ovary, uterus, or breast have an increased chance of developing colorectal
cancer. People who have a sedentary lifestyle are more likely to develop cancer
than people who take regular physical exercise.

Ans:
Dear Suresh,
Smoking is hazardous to your health. There is no reason why should start this bad habbit at this age it is a very difficult habit to break once you are addicted to cigarettes. Smoking can cause lung problems such as Asthma and lung cancer. Throat cancer is another complication of smoking .
SO PLEASE STOP SMOKING..
You may not have cancer but there is no reason to indulge in risky behaviour. Some Cancers are curable if treated early. Stress can cause sweating high heart rate etc..
If your symptoms persists you may have to consult a doctor.
Please take care.
