Kidney Cancer, also known as renal cancer, originates in the kidneys and is often detected in the later stages due to subtle symptoms. Dr. Prabhat Ranjan, a distinguished urologist, provides expertise in diagnosing and treating this condition to improve patient outcomes.
Kidney Cancer often develops slowly and may not show noticeable symptoms in its early stages. As the tumor grows, common signs include blood in the urine (hematuria), which may cause the urine to appear pink, red, or brown. Patients may also experience persistent pain in the lower back or side, near the kidneys, or a palpable lump in the abdomen. Other symptoms may include unexplained weight loss, fatigue, and a general feeling of weakness or malaise. Some individuals may notice swelling in the ankles, legs, or abdomen due to impaired kidney function. In advanced stages, kidney cancer may cause high blood pressure and anemia. Some individuals may also experience fever or night sweats. If left untreated, kidney cancer can progress silently and lead to further complications, affecting overall health. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for better outcomes and improved quality of life.
