Yes, renal cancer causes flank pain. However, in the early stages of renal cancer, there are generally no symptoms at all. Some of the other symptoms of renal cancer include: unexplained rapid weight loss, swelling of the legs and ankles, high blood pressure, fever, blood in the urine, and a mass or lump in the abdomen. Many of these symptoms are caused by conditions other than renal cancer. It is important to see your doctor for a correct diagnosis.
