There are more and more people suffering from prostate diseases, and many are even patients with prostate cancer. Prostate cancer patients can experience many symptoms, and understanding the symptoms of prostate cancer is extremely crucial for patients, which is also a prerequisite for timely treatment. Can you detect these symptoms of prostate cancer?
1. Local tumor enlargement
If the tumor of the prostate increases locally and compresses the urethra of the prostate around it, the symptoms of prostate cancer may appear dysuria, which may be manifested as progressive dysuria, frequency of urination, urgency of urination, pain in urination, and unconsciousness in urination. In severe cases, urine drips and retention may occur. These symptoms are similar to those of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and are prone to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis, delaying the early diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
2. Advanced prostate cancer
For advanced prostate cancer, symptoms of prostate cancer can include fatigue, weight loss, and general pain. Due to the severe impact of pain on diet, sleep, and spirit, after long-term torture, the overall condition becomes increasingly weak, emaciated, and progressive anemia, leading to systemic failure and cachexia.
Having prostate cancer is painful for patients. As a cancer with a high mortality rate, timely detection of symptoms is very important.
