If there are 4 changes in urine and bowel movements, it may be a sign of cancer, so it's time to get checked
Urine and urine are an inevitable part of our daily lives, but have you ever paid attention to their changes?
Sometimes, some abnormal changes in bowel and bowel movements can indicate a serious health problem and may even be a sign of cancer. This article will detail these changes and how cancer can be prevented or detected early through testing.
1. Abnormal stool color.
Changes in the color of your stool can be due to the effects of food, medications, or diseases. For example, eating a lot of leafy greens may cause green stools, while eating red heart dragon fruit may give red stools. However, if the stool color is consistently black, clay, or red, or is significantly different from its usual color, it may be due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding or other serious conditions such as colorectal cancer.
2. Change in bowel habits.
A change in bowel habits is also a sign of concern. For example, if a person who normally has one bowel movement a day suddenly has constipation or diarrhea, or has a noticeably more frequent bowel movement, this may indicate abnormal bowel function. These symptoms can be a sign of intestinal inflammation, intestinal dysbiosis, or other intestinal diseases, or they can be an early manifestation of a gut tumor.
3. Blood in the stool. Blood in the stool is another symptom that needs to be taken seriously. A small amount of blood in the stool can be caused by hemorrhoids, fissures, etc., but if the amount of blood in the stool is large or lasts for a long time, especially when mixed with the stool, it can be a sign of intestinal inflammation, intestinal polyps, or intestinal tumors. At this time, you should seek medical examination as soon as possible to avoid delaying the first opportunity.
Fourth, abnormal urination.
In addition to bowel movements, changes in urine can also be a sign of cancer. For example, hematuria may be one of the early symptoms of bladder cancer or kidney cancer. Pain or burning sensation when urinating can be a sign of a urinary tract infection, while persistent urinary frequency and urgency can also be a sign of prostate cancer.
How can we prevent and detect these symptoms that may be indicative of cancer?
First of all, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is an important measure to prevent cancer, including quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, eating a balanced diet, and exercising moderately. Secondly, regular check-ups and cancer screenings are key to early detection of cancer. According to different factors such as age, gender and family history, choose the screening items that are suitable for you, such as colonoscopy, gastroscopy, chest X-ray, etc. In addition, if the above symptoms appear, you should seek medical examination in time for early detection and ** cancer.
In conclusion, some abnormal changes in bowel and bowel movements can be a sign of cancer. We should pay attention to these changes and carry out timely examination and diagnosis. At the same time, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and having regular check-ups and cancer screenings are also important measures for cancer prevention and early detection.
