Bladder Cancer

  



A typical form of cancer that starts in the bladder's cells is bladder cancer. 
Your lower abdomen has a hollow muscular structure called the bladder that stores pee.



The cells (urothelial cells) that line the lining of your bladder are where bladder cancer most frequently develops. 
Your ureters, which connect your kidneys to your bladder, as well as your kidneys themselves contain urothelial cells. 

Although it can occur in the kidneys and ureters as well, bladder urothelial carcinoma is significantly more prevalent.

The majority of bladder cancer cases are discovered in their early stages, when they are quite curable. 
However, even early-stage bladder tumours might recur following a curative regimen. 
Because of this, bladder cancer patients frequently require follow-up exams for years following treatment to check for bladder cancer that returns.

Symptoms

Signs and symptoms of bladder cancer may include:


Hematuria (blood in the urine) can make the urine appear bright red or cola-colored, yet there are situations when the urine appears normal and blood is found on a lab test.

When bladder cells experience DNA changes (mutations), bladder cancer starts to spread. 
The DNA of a cell carries instructions that direct the cell's actions. 
The adjustments instruct the cell to proliferate quickly and to continue to exist when healthy cells would. 
A tumour created by the aberrant cells can penetrate and obliterate healthy body tissue. 
In time, the abnormal cells can break away and spread (metastasize) through the body.

If you have kids, your pediatrician has probably recommended the vaccine to guard against some cancers that are linked to HPV. It can sound pretty scary: a common infection that causes cancer. So should women worry about HPV? According to Trimble, the answer is no.   Women Don’t Need to Feel Ashamed About HPV “Anyone who’s ever had sex may have been exposed to HPV,” says Trimble, adding that she wishes she knew how to get rid of the unnecessary stigma associated with the disease. “Raising awareness can give you choices, and knowing you have choices is empowering.” Certain Types of HPV Are Linked with Cervical Disease While more than 100 types of HPV exist, only about a dozen of them are associate...
