Will cervical cancer cause back pain? What are the early symptoms of cervical cancer?

Cervical cancer is one of the malignant tumors in female gynecological diseases. In recent years, the risk of cervical cancer is relatively high. Patients often experience symptoms of irregular vaginal bleeding, as well as urinary tract infection, frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating. In the late stage of cervical cancer, it is common to cause low back pain due to tumor tissue compressing the nerves of surrounding organs. Therefore, patients with cervical cancer should pay attention to treating this disease as soon as possible.

The incidence of cervical cancer is now second only to breast cancer, but many women do not know the symptoms of cervical cancer, so it is easy to miss the best time for treatment. In fact, the early symptoms of cervical cancer are basically similar to those of common gynecological inflammation, so female friends must pay more attention to it and seek medical attention as soon as they find that they are unwell. So today, let’s first understand whether cervical cancer can cause back pain?

Patients with cervical cancer often experience irregular vaginal bleeding, as well as urinary tract infection, frequent urination, urgent urination, and painful urination. Some patients may experience low back pain, but this situation mostly occurs in the late stages of cervical cancer. This is because tumor tissue compresses the nerves of surrounding organs, or symptoms such as fallopian tube obstruction and hydronephrosis cause low back pain, so patients with cervical cancer should pay attention.

Once cervical cancer is in the late stage, the cervical cancer tumor will infiltrate, and even when the tumor grows, it will compress or damage the nerves, and then low back pain will occur, so cervical cancer can also cause low back pain. Patients should go to the hospital for a detailed examination when they have low back pain and abdominal pain, and they should not ignore it. In addition to the symptoms of low back pain, cervical cancer patients may also have many complications in the late stage, so patients should try to receive treatment in the early stage.

In the early stage of cervical cancer, the symptoms are only localized in the cervix, and there are not many symptoms. As the disease progresses, the patient will have too many symptoms, increased vaginal discharge, vaginal bleeding, vaginal bleeding after sexual intercourse, irregular menstruation, or regular vaginal bleeding in menopausal women. Patients with these symptoms should pay attention and go to the hospital in time to rule out cervical cancer. If confirmed, they should be treated in time.

Patients with advanced cervical cancer will experience systemic symptoms, not only back pain, but also elevated body temperature, generally around 38 degrees, and a few patients will have a temperature above 39 degrees, which is caused by tissue necrosis and infection. Other patients will experience metastatic symptoms, such as falling, difficulty defecating, blood in the stool, etc. This is a disease that cannot be taken lightly.
