Is cancer Contagious?

Posted in: Cancer by Dr. Tarang Krishna Posted Date: 06 Nov, 2015

Cancer is not at all contagious. A healthy person cannot catch cancer from a cancer patient through physical relation, touching and having meal with him/her. This is so because the immune system of a healthy person recognizes the cancer cells and other foreign cells and destroys them. Though precautions should be taken in the following cases.

• During transplant of any organ from the cancer patient.
• During pregnancy, if mother has cancer then the risk of cancer transfers to the baby.
• Viruses, bacteria and other parasites in the air may cause cancer in the body of a healthy person.
• Cancer due to certain kind of DNA change in the body of a healthy person.
• Risk of cancer when the transplant of organ has already taken place. This is irrespective of the fact that whether or not the donor was affected with cancer.
