What are the early symptoms of bladder cancer?

The early symptoms of bladder cancer are very attractive, because in this way you can judge whether you are sick and prepare in advance. Of course, this is also because this disease is a more serious malignant disease that directly endangers life. Therefore, early detection can lead to early treatment and prolong life. So what are the early symptoms of bladder cancer?

1. Difficulty urinating

What are the common symptoms of bladder cancer? Usually, a small number of patients have larger tumors, and the tumors grow in the patient's bladder neck, accompanied by blood clots, which directly cause urinary obstruction, urinary retention, difficulty urinating and other problems.

2. Bladder irritation symptoms

In addition to the obvious symptom of dysuria, early patients also have bladder irritation symptoms. Urinary tract irritation symptoms rarely occur in the early stages of this disease. However, if there is an obvious infection, or if the tumor grows in the bladder triangle, urinary tract irritation symptoms will appear earlier. On the other hand, frequent urination and urgency may also indicate that the patient may have a bladder tumor. Therefore, we recommend that patients who lack evidence should undergo active and comprehensive examinations as soon as possible to ensure timely treatment.

3. Hematuria

Generally, patients with early stage bladder cancer may experience painless hematuria, which is manifested as only hematuria without other discomfort, or some patients' hematuria is visible to the naked eye, or some patients need to use a microscope to find it. Of course, this is usually the first symptom of the disease. However, some patients may have symptoms of hematuria throughout the whole process, or intermittently, and sometimes there are blood clots. At this time, the amount of bleeding is related to the severity of the patient's condition and the size of the tumor, but it cannot be guaranteed to be proportional.

4. Symptoms of upper urinary tract obstruction

Generally, in the early stage of bladder cancer, when the disease progresses to a certain extent, the patient will have cancer infiltrating the ureteral orifice, which will also lead to ureteral accumulation and infection. In addition, it will also induce other discomfort symptoms, accompanied by varying degrees of symptoms, such as fever, back pain, and urinary pain. In severe cases, if both ureteral orifices are invaded, it may cause symptoms of acute renal failure.

Well, through our brief introduction to the early symptoms of bladder cancer above, we know that there are four symptoms, among which the most obvious and direct manifestation is dysuria, which is also the main symptom in the early stage. Therefore, we need to deepen our understanding of the disease so that we can prevent it early.
