What are the symptoms of bladder cancer?

The incidence of bladder cancer is very high in our country. Generally speaking, there are no obvious symptoms of bladder cancer . It is because people do not pay close attention to the symptoms of bladder cancer that the disease is not under control. The following are the symptoms of bladder cancer introduced by experts.

1. The most common symptom of bladder cancer is hematuria that can be seen with the naked eye without any feeling. This is a unique "abnormal urination signal" of bladder cancer. Almost every bladder cancer patient will experience it, and about 85% of bladder cancer patients seek medical treatment for this reason. There are two types of hematuria: macroscopic hematuria and microscopic hematuria. Macroscopic hematuria refers to bloody urine that can be seen directly with the eyes, and microscopic hematuria refers to red blood cells that can be found in the urine under a microscope. Bladder cancer hematuria is mostly painless and intermittent. Most cases are full-course hematuria, and a few are terminal hematuria. Hematuria accompanied by frequent urination and urgency is less common.

2. Frequent and urgent urination: If the tumor grows in the bladder triangle, bladder irritation may appear earlier. If urination pain occurs, it is no longer in the early stage. In short, if unexplained hematuria suddenly appears, it is the earliest signal of bladder cancer symptoms.

3. If the tumor invades widely and deeply, the symptoms of bladder cancer may be painful, which is aggravated by bladder contraction and urine retention. If the tumor is located at the bladder neck, it may cause urethral obstruction and even urinary retention. If the tumor invades the urethral orifice, hydronephrosis and ascending infection may occur. Severe patients may develop sepsis and uremia, and cachexia may occur in the late stage.
