What happens if it gets black is that you've had a bleed under the nail, in the nail bed.

That kind of thing will often - but not always - disturb the growth zone of the nail somewhere behing the cuticle.

When that happens, the nail will no longer be able to grow as a continuous unit. There'll be a stop in the growth, a break in the nail, and then there'll be a new nail. As the new nail grows the old will be pushed ahead and eventually fall off.

I am a TOTAL layman, but after having done extensive research here on line to answer this question about my 77 year old dad, what I've been able to discover is that there IS NO ANSWER... that the life expectancy for a patient with end stage congestive heart failure is completely unique to that particular individual. Their age, level of strength, degree of heart damage and a mulititude of other factors all play a part in the eventuality.

On the lowest possible scale of factors, several weeks to months.

So far as i know it is more like a rumor. Scientists have not found any related links between those who use aluminum deodorant and breast cancer. I guess if they have found then all the aluminum deodorants will be banned from selling in stores.

At first you may have no symptoms. When the cancer is large enough to cause symptoms it has usually grown outside the pancreas. The symptoms depend on the cancers location within the pancreas. If it is in the head of the pancreas they symptoms will be weight loss, jaundice, and abdominal pain. Cancer in the body or the tail of the pancreas will cause abdominal pain and weight loss. There will eventually be more digestive system complaints such as abdominal pain bloating, satiety or a feeling of fullness, nausea, diarrhea, pale-colored stools. As it grows and spreads the cancer affects the whole body, with malaise and loss of appetite, elevated blood sugars. Jaundice will occur when the cancer blocks the bile duct. Finally there may be a general itch to the skin.

Curative treatment is to literally cure a brain tumor, such as radiotherapy or surgery to remove the tumor. However, in some cases, the brain tumor cannot be cured.

Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in men and women in the U.S. When it's caught in its early stages, it's easily treated and often cured. But because it is usually not discovered early, it is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S. The exact cause is unknown, but most cases begin as polyps, which are small growths inside the colon or rectum. Colon polyps are very common, and most of them do not turn into cancer. Most polyps are easily found with fairly simple screening tests. Screening tests are tests that look for a certain disease or condition before any symptoms appear. In the case of colon cancer, screening tests can find evidence of polyps in the intestine. Sometimes the doctor can remove any polyps that are found at the same time.

You are more likely to get colorectal cancer if you eat a high-fat diet, smoke, or have a history of this type of cancer in your family.
