What are the dangers of prostate cancer?

Most men know that prostate cancer is a very scary disease, so many men will take certain measures to deal with prostate cancer to prevent themselves from being troubled by prostate cancer. However, there are still prostate cancer patients in society. So what are the hazards of prostate cancer?

One of the hazards of prostate cancer: systemic damage

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.

The second hazard of prostate cancer: urination disorder

Dysuria is one of the most common symptoms of prostate cancer. About 80% of patients will 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 urine retention may occur. Only 3% of patients have hematuria.

The third hazard of prostate cancer: metastasis symptoms

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.).

The fourth hazard of prostate cancer: pain

About 31% of patients with prostate cancer will experience pain. Common pain sites are mainly in the waist, sacrum, buttocks, and hips. Pelvic and sciatica are the main symptoms of common prostate cancer, which are severe and unbearable. It may be caused by cancer metastasis to the bones or invasion of nerves or hydronephrosis and kidney infection.

The fifth harm of prostate cancer: infertility

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

After understanding the harmfulness of prostate cancer, every man should be more afraid of this disease. Therefore, it is very necessary for every man to truly understand prostate cancer and pay attention to protecting himself in daily life to prevent himself from suffering from prostate cancer.
