March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month.

The American Cancer Society said it is the leading cause of cancer deaths in men under 50, and the second leading cause in women.

An American Cancer Society report this year also found there’s been an increase in cases in Americans under the age of 55.

Dr. Paul Oberstein, a medical oncologist at NYU Langone Health, joined “The Rush Hour” to discuss colon cancer, the risks and how to prevent it.
