Bladder cancer: the silent killer – 10 signs to watch out for

 

1.  Presence of blood in the urine (hematuria)

This is the  most common symptom . The urine may appear  red, pink  , or contain  traces of blood detectable only through a test .
Although it sometimes disappears temporarily,  it should never be ignored .

2.  Frequent need to urinate

If you feel the urge to urinate more frequently than usual, even  without increasing your fluid intake , it may be an  early  warning sign.

3.  Pain or burning sensation when urinating

A burning or stinging sensation  when urinating  can be mistaken for a  urinary tract infection .
👉 If the symptom  persists after antibiotic treatment , it’s important  to consult a doctor .

4.  Difficulty urinating

Having trouble  starting urination  or experiencing  interruptions in the flow of urine  may indicate a problem with the bladder or lower urinary tract.

5.  Pain in the lower back or pelvis
