Guide To The Major Symptoms Of Rhabdomyosarcoma

Nose, Throat, And Ear Bleeding

An individual who experiences nose, throat, or ear bleeding may have developed rhabdomyosarcoma in the affected area. The skin that makes up the inner lining of the nasal cavity is very sensitive and contains numerous small blood vessels close to its surface. Major disruptions in the structure of this mucous membrane cause damage to these vessels and results in a nosebleed. The infiltration of cancerous cells from a patient's rhabdomyosarcoma can easily produce a nosebleed. Bleeding from the throat can be a symptom that occurs as the result of bleeding in the nose that drains into the throat, or it can be the result of rhabdomyosarcoma invading into the muscular tissues of the patient's esophagus and causing damage to blood vessels. The ear canal is also lined with a high concentration of small blood vessels that can burst or leak when they become damaged. Cancerous cells from a rhabdomyosarcoma can invade the ear canal and produce bloody ear discharge.
