What are the late-stage symptoms of prostate cancer? How long can one live with late-stage prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer is a malignant tumor disease, which is very harmful and brings a lot of pain to patients and their families. Many patients only know that they are sick in the late stage, at which time, there is no hope for treatment. Let's first understand some symptoms of late prostate cancer.

1. Symptoms of metastasis: Metastasis is very common among patients with prostate cancer. About 1/3 or even 2/3 of patients have lymph node metastasis when they first see a doctor, mostly in the iliac, iliac, waist, groin and other parts. It can cause enlarged lymph nodes in the corresponding parts and swelling of the lower limbs. Hematogenous metastasis is more common in bones and internal organs.

2. Systemic symptoms: Systemic symptoms mainly include weight loss, fatigue, low fever, progressive anemia, cachexia or renal failure.

3. Pain: Pain in the waist, buttocks, sacrum, hips, pelvis, and sciatica is common and severe and unbearable. It may be caused by cancer metastasis to the bones or invasion of nerves or hydronephrosis and kidney infection. About 31% of patients experience pain.

4. Symptoms of obstruction: About 80% of patients will experience progressive dysuria, thinning or deviated urine flow, bifurcated urine flow, prolonged urination, frequent urination, urgency, pain, and a feeling of incomplete urination. In severe cases, urine dripping and urine retention may occur. Only 3% of patients have hematuria.

If prostate cancer is serious, it can kill the patient, so don't be careless. Once a male friend notices any discomfort in his body, he should go to the doctor as soon as possible, and never let his delay affect the final treatment effect.
