Hello there
I'm a 23 year old man , very healthy. I just wanted to ask how long does it take for any cancer to develop to actually start showing real symptoms?

Sorry for a bit unrelated to the topic question

It is generally depends upon type of cancer, in some cases you may know about it within ten days and in some cases it may take years.
