Blood in urine, pain and burning during urination, and frequent urination are symptoms of bladder cancer, but they can also indicate other conditions. It’s important to see a doctor for testing and early treatment, as bladder cancer can be difficult to treat in later stages.
Some of the symptoms of bladder cancer are the same as those of a bladder infection or other medical condition, so you shouldn’t automatically fear that you have cancer if you experience them. However, you should see a doctor about testing as soon as possible, as both infections and bladder cancer need to be treated right away. Blood in the urine, pain and burning, and frequent urination are the main symptoms of bladder cancer.
Blood in the urine is one of the most common symptoms of bladder cancer, but it can also signal kidney problems or other conditions. The medical term for blood in the urine is hematuria, and hematuria may only be visible under a microscope or it may be visible to the naked eye. If you notice a little blood in your urine even once, you should go to a doctor to have it checked as you may still be bleeding even when you no longer see any signs of blood. When hematuria is visible, it may look red or brown in color and may be just a few drops.
Because you may still be bleeding and not know it, it’s important not to assume that your blood in your urine symptoms are gone. They do not go away and should be checked as soon as possible by a doctor. Hematuria does not always mean bladder cancer but in case it is bladder cancer it is important to treat it early as it can be a difficult cancer to treat in later stages.
Pain and burning when urinating can be signs of a bladder infection or symptoms of cancer. Often the pain in both conditions feels like a burning sensation. A visit to the doctor should be made right away to rule out bladder cancer in most cases and treat the infection. Again, symptoms most likely won’t mean cancer, but early treatment is best when treating bladder cancer, so early detection is important.
Frequent urination is another symptom of bladder cancer, but many other conditions like diabetes also have this symptom. If you notice a change in how often you are urinating, you should have it medically checked as soon as possible to find out the cause. Feeling like you still need to urinate after you have already done it and urinating for shorter periods are other possible symptoms of bladder cancer that you should discuss with your doctor.
