BLADDER CANCER
WHAT IS BLADDER CANCER
Bladder cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the cells of the bladder, the organ responsible for storing urine. It typically starts in the lining of the bladder and can spread to nearby tissues and organs if not treated early.
Common symptoms include blood in the urine, frequent urination, and pain during urination. Treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy, depending on the stage and severity of the cancer. Early detection and timely treatment are crucial for better outcomes.
SYMPTOMS OF BLADDER CANCER
It is important to note that these symptoms can also be caused by other conditions, but if any of these signs persist or cause concern, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
- Blood in the urine (hematuria): One of the most common symptoms of bladder cancer is the presence of blood in the urine, which may appear pink, red, or dark brown.
- Frequent urination: Individuals with bladder cancer often experience increased frequency of urination, needing to urinate more frequently than usual.
- Painful urination: Some people may experience pain or a burning sensation during urination.
- Lower back pain: Bladder cancer can cause lower back pain, particularly if the cancer has spread to the nearby tissues or organs.
- Pelvic pain: In advanced stages of bladder cancer, individuals may experience pain in the pelvic area.
- Urgency to urinate: Feeling a strong and sudden urge to urinate even when the bladder is not full is another symptom.
- Difficulty urinating: Bladder cancer can sometimes cause a blockage in the urinary tract, leading to difficulty in starting or stopping urination.
- Fatigue and weight loss: As the cancer progresses, individuals may experience unexplained fatigue and unintentional weight loss.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The most common symptoms include blood in the urine, frequent urination, pain or burning during urination, lower back or pelvic pain, and unexplained fatigue or weight loss.
Diagnosis typically involves a combination of medical history review, physical examination, urine tests, imaging tests (such as CT scan or ultrasound), and a procedure called cystoscopy, where a thin tube with a camera is used to examine the bladder.
Treatment options depend on the stage and severity of the cancer but may include surgery (such as transurethral resection or radical cystectomy), radiation therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or a combination of these approaches.
While it is not always possible to prevent bladder cancer, some measures can lower the risk. These include avoiding tobacco smoke, minimizing exposure to certain chemicals, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, staying hydrated, and promptly treating bladder infections or inflammations.
