Some of the risk factors include the infections of the Human papilloma virus (HPV). HPV has more than 100 different types, and some spread through sexual contact. More than 70% of people diagnosed with anal cancer have evidence of the infection of HPV.
Other risk factors include presence of sexually transmitted disease, aging, smoking and immune-deficiency. The symptoms of anal cancer are similar to other anal disorders such as anal fissure or piles (haemorrhoids). About 20% of people with the cancer may not show any symptoms, and some of the symptoms of anal cancer include discharge of mucus from anus; rectal bleeding; pain around the anus; small lumps around the anus that appear as piles; sensation of a lump in the anus and feeling of incomplete evacuation after emptying the bowel; fecal incontinence or difficulty in controlling bowels; anemia and its symptoms; and lump(s) in the groin indicating swollen lymph nodes.
