Scientists remind that blood in urine cannot be ignored

Many people still do not consult a doctor if they see blood in their urine. And this despite the fact that in 1 out of 5 cases such a symptom indicates malignant formations in the genitourinary system.

Action on Bladder Cancer, a British non-profit organization that focuses exclusively on bladder cancer, is urging people to take this alarming symptom more seriously.

Blood in the urine is a reason to consult a doctor. But, unfortunately, many patients either do not know about the importance of this symptom or feel ashamed when discussing such problems with their doctor. This, of course, could be urolithiasis or infection, but it is simply necessary to exclude the worst option at an early stage.

Bladder cancer is the fourth most common cancer among men and the eleventh most common among women. Cancer mortality rates were found to be almost a third higher in men than in women. Researchers have linked it to hard-to-treat cancers, including bladder cancer.

Bladder cancer is three times more common among men than women in the UK. However, in women, the disease is more often diagnosed at an advanced stage, which is associated with a worse prognosis. Bladder cancer at an early stage is easily treatable, but if the lymph nodes and neighboring organs are involved, survival rate drops sharply.

This is why it is very important to take the early signs of the disease seriously. ABC now actively works with healthcare professionals and patients to improve the effectiveness of diagnosis and treatment. The main way is through public awareness, educational programs and research.
