Just because it can divide infinitely doesn't mean you can't harm it physically by like blowing it up, unless it divided at an incredibly fast rate that would consume the entire world

So, cancer hurts? if it doesn't how do u know if YOU don't have cancer!?!?

Why wouldn't cancer hurt? Imagine a lump of runaway cells under your flesh rubbing against your internal organs or muscles. Sure in some places it might not bother, if its small enough. But if it grows and sticks out I'm sure it will cause pain.

A friend of mine had surgery and had to get some of his stomache muscles cut in half. For a while he could shosh his guts around. The moral to this story (sort of) is that your guts and stuff inside you doesn't have nerves. You could see it bulging out looking like it could hurt, be he wasn't in any pain. (and he wasn't on any drugs)

So you are saying you only feel things on your skin? I find that hard to believe, but I don't know much.
I've been googling some cancer pain information and one site said the pressure from a tumor can cause pain if its touching a sensitive part of the body. Which is what I said before.

Where Does Cancer Pain Come From?
Pain related to cancer is caused by a variety of factors. It is not necessary for you to know the cause of your pain to receive treatment, but having knowledge may help you feel more in control. Alerting your doctor or nurse immediately about the pain you are having makes treatment more effective.
Cancer Related Pain
Pain caused by the actual cancer can be divided into two categories. Nociceptive pain is caused by damage to tissue. It is usually described as sharp, aching or throbbing pain. Neuropathic pain happens when there is actual nerve damage. People may describe this pain as a burning or heavy sensation, or numbness.
Nociceptive pain may be due to:
Cancer that is growing larger at its original site
Cancer that has spread to the bones, muscles or joints
A blockage of an organ such as the colon or parts of the digestive system
An obstruction of the windpipe
Swelling from blood vessels blocked by a tumor
Neuropathic pain may be due to:
A tumor pressing on or intruding on a nerve or a group of nerves
A tumor pressing on the spinal cord, called "spinal cord compression."

You can only feel things wherever there is a nerve, there aren't any nerves on the inside of our gut. They all run down the spine there.

When there is food in your stomach how do you feel when you are full? Or like have gas or anything.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Rantent on 2005-04-09 at 19:44:59
The feeling of fullness has to do the the endocrine system, I believe it is the amount of hormone glucogon in your blood stream, it could be either that or insulin, that makes us feel full or hungry.
And the reason for stomach growling is that there is empty space in your stomach that when your stomach contracts vibrates. Just to be very off topic.

They have also discovered that scorpion venom destroyes cancer tissue as well as other methods. As far as I know they are still working on extracting it. It has been expiremneted with but the results were slight. They are still trying to make it useable.

Isn't using bacteria against cancer the newest way? They also always use radiation or chemotherapy and they are advancing more into radiation and chemotherapy every day!
