Early and late stages of bladder cancer

Early symptoms

1 Generally, there is no feeling in the early stage of bladder cancer. Generally, hematuria can be observed with the naked eye. This is a unique signal of bladder cancer. Almost every bladder cancer patient will have hematuria. Most people seek medical treatment because of hematuria. Hematuria can generally be divided into two categories. One is hematuria visible to the naked eye, and the other is hematuria that can only be found through a microscope. Hematuria usually has intermittent hematuria and painless hematuria. Frequent urination and urgency are rare.

2. Frequent urination and urgency. If the tumor grows in the trigone of the bladder, if urination pain occurs, it is not in the early stage. So hematuria is an early signal.

3 If the tumor continues to spread, pain will occur and malignant symptoms will appear in the late stage.

Late stage symptoms

1. Hematuria. This is a typical signal of late-stage bladder cancer. Most patients have hematuria. Repeated hematuria over a long period of time can cause severe anemia, resulting in physical weakness and weight loss in the patient.

2. Cancer pain. Severe pain will occur in the late stage. Bladder cancer will spread and cause chest pain. If it spreads to the bones, it will cause bone pain, etc.

3 In the late stage of bladder cancer, urinary retention will occur, and a large amount of urine in the bladder cannot be discharged. In severe cases, the patient will not be able to urinate for a week.
