🔵 **May is Urinary Bladder Cancer Awareness Month** 🔵 This May, let's turn our attention to a condition that affects over 610,000 people worldwide every year. Bladder cancer is the 9th most common cancer globally, and yet it remains one of the least talked about. 🩸 **Blood in the urine is the most important warning sign** 🩸 Don't ignore the signs. Painful urination, irregular urination, and blood in the urine can often be mistaken for less serious conditions. This May, we're saying it loud: ‘Feeling unsure? Get checked.’ Join us in spreading the word. Let's challenge the uncertainty around bladder cancer symptoms. Because early diagnosis offers a higher chance of successful treatment and long-term survival. 💬 **Talk about it. Share it. Raise awareness.** 💬 Together, we can make a difference. #BladderCancerAwareness #GetChecked
