Blood in the Urine!!!! Go for Cancer Scrutiny, urges kidney cancer campaign

Kidney cancer diagnoses have drastically increased and consequently killed many all over the world.
According to Public Health England (PHE), the rise is attributed to unhealthy lifestyles that include smoking and consumption of genetically modified foods. Smoking and obesity both hikes the chances of kidney cancer. However, early diagnosis could play a crucial role in lowering the death rates.
Research shows that when kidney cancer is identified at the earliest stage, the one-year endurance rate is close to 97%, unlike late diagnosis which has a one-year survival rate of 32%.
Noticeable blood while urinating is a symptom in more than 80% of bladder cancer patients and in most of those with kidney cancer.
Possible indications of Kidney Cancer

  •          Blood spots in urine

  •   Sudden urge to urinate, or need to pass urine very often

  •      Pain while passing urine

  •      Consistent Pain below the ribs

  •   An inflammation in your stomach

It is therefore advisable that any person with any of the above mentioned signs should promptly respond by seeking medical attention. Remember, prevention is far much better than cure.
