Experts Highlight Early Detection and Risk Factors of Kidney Cancer on Awareness Day
Kidney cancer, often called a 'silent disease,' frequently progresses without early symptoms, leading to late diagnoses and higher mortality. Risk factors include obesity, metabolic health issues, and frequent painkiller use. Common warning signs are blood in urine, persistent back or side pain, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, and loss of appetite. Increased awareness, early detection through imaging, and lifestyle modifications are emphasized by experts to improve outcomes and reduce the disease burden in India and globally.
