Symptoms of Kidney Cancer
Reading time: 1 min
The three classic symptoms of kidney cancer are:
Lower back pain.
Mass in the flank (abdominal area that extends over the hip and under the chest).
Haematuria (blood in the urine)
Currently, kidney tumours are diagnosed incidentally when performing an imaging test for another reason. As a result, about 50% of kidney tumours diagnosed in recent years are small (less than 3 cm).
