Prostate cancer is a malignant tumor, so it is conceivable that the harm of this disease is very great. Many male friends do not know the symptoms of prostate cancer very well, so they do not know it when they have prostate cancer. The following will introduce the symptoms of prostate cancer, hoping to help everyone understand the disease. Symptoms of prostate cancer: 1. Urinary dripping: This is caused by the increase of urination resistance due to the pressure on the bladder neck and prostatic urethra. During urination or at the end of urination, urine cannot flow in a continuous line but in a dripping state. Sometimes, even if you hold your breath and increase abdominal pressure, you still cannot make urine flow in a line. 2. Weak urination: This is also caused by the loss of compensatory ability of the bladder detrusor muscle when the prostate is diseased (including prostatitis, prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic cancer, prostatic cysts, etc.). When urinating, the urine cannot be discharged immediately, but needs to wait for a period of time and gradually exert force to discharge the urine. It can also be manifested as prolonged urination time, shorter range, thinner urine stream, etc. 3. Urinary incontinence: When the sphincter loses its control ability, urine will flow out involuntarily at any time, which is called urinary incontinence. Unlike other urinary incontinence, this type of patient still has a large amount of residual urine in the bladder during urinary incontinence. 4. White discharge from the urethra: This is common in inflammatory diseases of the prostate. A small amount of white discharge overflows from the urethra. Sometimes in the morning, the urethra is clogged with white discharge; sometimes, white discharge drips from the urethra before or after urination or when straining during bowel movements. 5. Urinary retention: Urine retention is when the urine in the bladder cannot be discharged due to various reasons. Urinary retention is of two types: acute and chronic. When urination is difficult due to prostate disease, there will be varying degrees of urinary retention, which is called chronic urinary retention. At this time, the patient can still urinate. Once the patient is completely unable to discharge urine, or the bladder is extremely dilated, it is acute urinary retention. If urinary retention is not treated in time, it will affect kidney function and even cause uremia. 6. Perineal pain: discomfort, heaviness, tingling or severe pain in the perineum. The pain may radiate to the lower back, penis, suprapubic area and inner thigh. The pain may intensify during bowel movements or cause pain in the rectum. This is mainly caused by prostatitis stimulating the nerves in the pelvic cavity. The above introduces the symptoms of prostate cancer. I hope everyone can understand the above symptoms. If you find yourself having these symptoms in your daily life, you should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible. If you are diagnosed with prostate cancer, you must receive treatment as soon as possible. |
