Your skin may alert you to leukemia, which is one of the most common types of blood cancer.
Now two organisations, Leukemia UK and Leukemia Care, are trying to spread awareness about the warning signs of leukemia, which is often diagnosed too late.
Worryingly, this type of leukemia is often difficult to detect because its symptoms can be very vague and not well known.
Fortunately, awareness of the symptoms may be the first step to identifying any precancerous changes.
One of the most common signs that can set off alarm bells is bruising, also known as bruising.
A bruise usually appears when the blood vessels under the skin are damaged.
Leukemia patients are more likely to bear these discolored skin changes because their bodies do not produce enough platelets to plug the bleeding blood vessels.
While leukemia bruises look like any other bruise, they are usually larger than normal.
These telltale signs may also appear in unusual parts of your body, such as your back.
Aside from bruising, you should look out for the following signs and symptoms:
Tired
Unexplained weight loss
Bleeding easily
swollen lymph nodes;
Flatulence and/or inflammation of the stomach
frequent infection
night sweats
Bone/joint pain
shortness of breath.
If you notice any of these symptoms, you should speak to a doctor.
If you notice one or more of the symptoms, ask your doctor for a blood test.
You should have an urgent blood test (within 48 hours) if you have any symptoms of leukemia.
Your doctor should look at a complete blood count (CBC) to determine if you have leukemia.
Abnormal levels of white blood cells and an abnormal decrease in the number of red blood cells or platelets may be warning signs of leukemia.
