How to detect prostate cancer early? Regular examinations can detect prostate cancer in time

For such a serious disease as prostate cancer, we must adhere to the principles of early detection, early examination and early treatment. Patients with early prostate cancer are generally asymptomatic, but the disease has a certain genetic history. People with prostate cancer in their families should go to the hospital for regular physical examinations. When the condition of prostate cancer patients develops to a certain extent, the tumor will compress the urethra, and the patient will experience incomplete urination, slow urine flow, thin urine stream, frequent urination at night, urinary incontinence and urgency. If the rectum is compressed, intestinal obstruction and perineal pain will occur. If the disease metastasizes, patients with prostate cancer will also experience impotence, hematuria, lower limb edema and limb pain.

Knowing the symptoms of prostate cancer will help you better check the disease. Currently, common methods for checking prostate cancer include CT scan, transrectal prostate ultrasound, serum test, radionuclide bone scan, imaging test and magnetic resonance imaging, etc. It is not difficult to diagnose the disease after knowing the test results, but you need to know the patient's family history and medical condition in detail.

Once diagnosed with prostate cancer, active treatment is necessary. Treatment of prostate cancer also needs to start from the cause of the patient's disease. In addition to genetic factors, the occurrence of prostate cancer is also related to unclean sexual intercourse, religious beliefs, race, incorrect eating habits and other factors. Patients with early prostate cancer can take radical treatment methods, such as radioactive particle implantation and radical external radiation therapy. Patients with mid-to-late stage prostate cancer need comprehensive treatment, such as surgical treatment, radiotherapy and endocrine therapy.

Patients with prostate cancer should also pay more attention during the treatment of the disease, avoid unclean sexual life, and have confidence in the treatment of the disease. Pay close attention to changes in your body, take medicine on time, do more outdoor physical exercise, open windows regularly for ventilation, do more aerobic exercise, and strengthen nutritional supplements in an all-round way, so that good treatment effects can be achieved.
