3. BOWEL OR BLADDER FUNCTION CHANGES

1. Constipation, diarrhea, and other bowel issues can be symptoms of colorectal cancer. It is important to observe the characteristics of these symptoms and to observe their degree of severity and duration. Usually, long-term diarrhea or constipation means it is a sign of cancer.

Those with bladder or prostate cancer will also notice pain in urination, blood in their urine, or other related bladder-function changes. Should you notice any changes in your bowel or bladder movement, make sure you consult your doctor and get assessed as soon as possible.
