Bladder cancer is a significant health concern, characterized by various symptoms that can often be mistaken for other benign conditions. Early diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment, but the nonspecific nature of many symptoms can delay identification.
Visible Hematuria (Blood in Urine)
Pain and Discomfort
Urinary Tract Infections and Other Symptoms
Metastatic Symptoms
Other Clinical Features
Bladder cancer primarily presents with visible hematuria, which is the most reliable indicator for further investigation. Other symptoms such as pain during urination, frequent urination, and lower back pain are common but nonspecific. Misdiagnosis with urinary tract infections is frequent due to overlapping symptoms. In some cases, metastatic symptoms may be the initial presentation. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential for effective management and treatment.
