Visual Signs of Poor Health That You Probably Ignore But Shouldn’t

Bathroom Habit Changes

Going to the bathroom much more frequently lately? Any change in bathroom habits should be considered. Urinating more or feeling strong urges to suddenly go, yet producing little pee; having troubles starting to urinate; or having a weak stream of urine are symptoms of various health conditions. Sometimes, it could merely be a urinary tract infection (UTI), but changes in urination may also indicate prostate or bladder cancer.

Now, for the bowels. A bout of constipation here and there is usually no cause for worry, but persistent and severe constipation could be from a bowel obstruction or colon cancer. Additionally, if your stool is thin, like a pencil, do not wait to see a doctor. Such skinny stool happens when the rectum is restricted. You may have polyps.
