Dysuria, or painful urination, is an early warning sign of bladder cancer. It may occur when tumors or other growths cause pressure that pushes on the individual's bladder, resulting in pain. Regardless of their size, tumors can cause a burning sensation or radiating pain while individuals are urinating. Pain can also occur as a result of changes in the bladder due to the growth of abnormal cells.

Patients may also experience a frequent urge to urinate A constant urge to urinate but only releasing a small amount of urine each time is a symptom of bladder cancer. Urinating more often than usual can be a sign of many health problems, including urinary tract infections or menopause. But if cancer is present, the urge will not go away as the tumor or abnormal cells inside the bladder may be applying constant pressure. Those who experience a frequent urge to urinate along with bladder pain should seek immediate treatment.
