3. An ongoing fever

26% of kidney cancer patients say they are struck with an ongoing recurrent fever that most certainly is not from cold or flu. Normally this fever isn’t too high, it is just persistent and wouldn’t go away. Fever occurs when your body is battling with bacteria or viral infections. Your body assumes that its temperature is lowering and thus to maintain its temperature a fever occurs.

When a patient is suffering from kidney cancer, his or her fever might stay for longer periods of time. If you or anyone you know has the symptom of ongoing fever that doesn’t go away for days, you should immediately get yourself checked.
