My grandfather had colon cancer in the 80's, but his treatment was removal of part of the colon and small intestine.

I have stage III colon cancer, and just had surgery to remove about 8" of my colon on the 1st. That is usually the first step. If they find that the cancer has progressed beyond stage I, they will usually start chemo as soon as you're healthy enough after the surgery. The standard chemo for colon cancer is milder than chemo for other types of cancer. It does still make you tired and nauseous for about a day, but you don't lose your hair.

What are you trying to ask? Treatment for colon cancer depends on the stage of the disease. There isn̢۪t a treatment to prevent it. Polyps are treated by removing them. How often that needs to be done depends on how quickly you develop them.
