What are the main hazards of prostate cancer

For men, the most feared thing is to suffer from prostate cancer, which is a very painful thing. Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in life nowadays. Nowadays, the elderly are one of the high-risk groups for prostate cancer. Moreover, it should be noted that the older you are, the higher the risk of prostate cancer. Therefore, the elderly should be vigilant about prostate cancer. The following is an introduction to the hazards of prostate cancer:

Since cancer pain can affect the patient's diet, sleep, and spirit, the patient's overall condition will become increasingly weak over a long period of time, showing signs of weight loss and fatigue, and then developing a series of damaging symptoms such as anemia, cachexia, or renal failure.

Urinary disorder is one of the most common symptoms of prostate cancer. Patients may experience progressive dysuria, thinning or deflected urine flow, bifurcated urine flow, prolonged urination, frequent urination, urgency, pain, and a feeling of incomplete urination due to the cancer. In severe cases, dribbling urine and urinary retention may occur.

Many tumors will metastasize in the late stage, and prostate cancer is no exception. About 1/3 or even 2/3 of prostate cancer patients have lymph node metastasis when they first see a doctor, mostly in the iliac, iliac, waist, groin and other parts. It can cause lymph node enlargement and lower limb swelling in the corresponding parts. Hematogenous metastasis is more common in bones (such as pelvis, sacrum, lumbar spine, upper femur, etc.) and internal organs (such as lungs, liver, brain, adrenal glands, testicles, etc.).

If prostate cancer is not treated early, it may lead to male infertility.

In the treatment of prostate cancer, surgery is generally the preferred treatment method. At the same time, it is actually the only way to completely cure prostate cancer. The harm of prostate cancer is certainly very great, but in fact, this disease is not impossible to prevent through formal means. The key is to pay attention to it.
