Will prostatitis turn into prostate cancer?

Can prostatitis turn into prostate cancer?

1. Due to the different concepts of these two diseases, prostatitis will not directly transform into prostate cancer.

2. Prostatitis is mainly caused by long-term sitting, smoking, drinking, staying up late, indulgence, etc. The prostate is caused by infection with pathogens such as bacteria, mycoplasma or chlamydia. Prostate cancer is mainly a disease caused by malignant changes in normal cells, such as aging, smoking, drinking, genetics, etc. Under normal circumstances, prostatitis will not turn into prostate cancer, and there is no obvious correlation between the two diseases. Prostate cancer is not caused by simple inflammation. However, if prostatitis is not treated for a long time, the condition will further develop into a chronic disease, and the prostate tissue will be stimulated by inflammatory factors for a long time. Coupled with the influence of other factors, the possibility of malignant changes in prostate cells will increase.

3. Whether it is prostatitis or prostate cancer, patients need to receive formal and scientific treatment in a timely manner. During the treatment process, patients should avoid smoking, drinking, and eating irritating foods, but also have regular work and rest time so that the body can get enough rest to promote the improvement of the condition.
