Early signs of cancer: Doctor on five symptoms to heed

Struggling with any of these five symptoms? It's better not to delay scheduling a visit and seeing a specialist. A doctor active online pointed out symptoms that may be the first signs of cancer.

There is nothing more valuable than health. And although it's not worth being overly sensitive about any issue, carefully listening to your own body is extremely important. People who immediately report to a doctor with worrying symptoms have a chance of early detection of serious illness, even cancer.

In a video that has already had almost 800,000 views on TikTok, Dr. Raj Arora discusses it. Although she does not intend to instill fear, she simply informs and warns about specific symptoms. She pointed out five of them.

The family doctor first listed a sudden weight loss. If you do not exercise, are not on a diet, and are not trying to lose weight, but the scale shows less and less, you may have reasons for concern.

Secondly, she warned against the presence of blood in urine and stool. Although it may mean a superficial infection or another illness, this symptom should never be ignored, especially if it appears for the first time. It’s also crucial to be alert to bleeding from the genital tract after menopause or regular bleeding after sexual intercourse.

It's also necessary to see a doctor when bloating becomes a frequent problem. In most cases, it may mean the intestines are not working correctly or other complications in the digestive system, but it’s always worth ruling out a possible tumour. Dr. Raj Arora also mentioned checking any lump that appears on the body.
