10 signs to detect quickly
Here are the most common symptoms to watch for:
1. Presence of blood in the urine (hematuria), even in small quantities.
2. Pain or burning when urinating.
3. Frequent urge to urinate, sometimes for no apparent reason.
4. Difficulty urinating or weak urinary stream.
5. Pain in the lower back or pelvic area.
6. Repeated urinary tract infections, resistant to conventional treatments.
7. Unexplained weight loss.
8. Persistent and general fatigue.
9. Swelling of the legs (in advanced stages).
10. Bone pain in metastatic stages.
Why consult quickly?
It’s crucial not to ignore these signs, even if they seem benign. A simple urine test or cystoscopy (an examination of the bladder with a small camera) can often help make an early diagnosis. The earlier the cancer is detected, the greater the chances of a cure.
