Cancer
Cancer grows out of normal cells in the body. Normal cells multiply when the body needs them, and die when the body doesn't need them. Cancer appears to occur when the growth of cells in the body is out of control and cells divide too quickly. It can also occur when cells forget how to die.
There are many different kinds of cancers. Cancer can develop in almost any organ or tissue, such as the lung, colon, breast, skin, bones, or nerve tissue.
There are many causes of cancers, including:

Back Pain
While there are many sources for back pain, from the mattress you sleep on, to the type of work you do, most episodes of pain are brought on by inflammation of the muscles and surrounding tissue. Alleviating pain can usually be done by controlling the amount of inflammation to any given area of the body. Magnesium, while it is not an anti-inflammatory, does have the quality of relieving pain. The body can only handle small dosages of magnesium at first use. Large dosages to start can cause violent bowel movements. To increase the effectiveness of the magnesium, you can increase your intake by 200 mg per week, to the maximum intake of 800 mg daily, 400 mg in the morning and 400 mg at night.

Abscess
An abscess is a collection of PUS in any part of the body that, in most cases, causes swelling and inflammation around it.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Abscesses occur when an area of tissue becomes infected and the body's immune system tries to fight it. White blood cells move through the walls of the blood vessels into the area of the infection and collect within the damaged tissue. During this process, pus forms. Pus is the buildup of fluid, living and dead white blood cells, dead tissue, and bacteria or other foreign substances.
Abscesses can form in almost any part of the body. The skin, under the skin, and the teeth are the most common sites. Abscesses may be caused by bacteria, parasites, and foreign substances.
Abscesses in the skin are easy to see. They are red, raised, and painful. Abscesses in other areas of the body may not be obvious, but they may cause significant organ damage. If severe enough, minor surgery, followed by a regimen of antibiotics may be needed.
