5 Early Signs of Kidney Cancer
Kidney cancer is a common cancer in both women and men, and most patients are over 60 years old. Almost all of the kidney cancer appears first in the lining of the tiny tubes in the kidney, and this type is also named as Renal Cell Carcinoma RCC. Fortunately, most of the kidney cancer could be found before spreading to the distant organs. In general, the cancer found early is easier to be treated successfully. The following are the 5 early signs and symptoms of kidney cancer: 1.
