Don't ignore sudden weight loss or unexplained bleeding, doctor warns

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

There is nothing more valuable than health. And although it isn't worth being overly sensitive about every issue, carefully listening to your body is extremely important. Those who immediately consult a doctor with worrying symptoms have a chance of early detection of serious illnesses, including cancer.

In a video that already has almost 800,000 views on TikTok, Dr. Raj Arora discusses these symptoms. While she has no intention of instilling fear, she informs and warns about specific symptoms, pointing out five of them.

The family doctor first mentioned sudden weight loss. If you are not exercising, following a diet, or trying to lose weight, but the scale shows a consistent decrease, you may have reason for concern.

Secondly, she warned about the presence of blood in urine and stool. While this may indicate a simple 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 following sexual intercourse.

See a doctor when bloating becomes a frequent problem is also necessary. In most cases, it may indicate that the intestines are not working properly or suggest other complications in the digestive system. However, it’s always worth ruling out a possible tumour. Dr. Raj Arora also mentioned checking any lump that appears on the body.
