Symptoms of prostate cancer
Warning signs of prostate cancer: the body's distress alarm
Symptoms are mainly divided into three categories, and it is recommended to collect self-checklists:
I. Abnormal urination: the most easily detected alarm
Urination becomes thinner and the range is shortened
Frequent urination (especially obvious at night)
Waiting to urinate and feeling of incomplete urination
Inability to urinate in severe cases (urinary retention)
II. Local spread: the "domino effect" of tumor invasion
Lower abdominal/perineal swelling
Testicular prolapse or low back pain
Hematuria/hematospermia (urine/ Blood in semen)
Urinary incontinence or painful urination
III. Metastatic symptoms: Be alert to these pains
Severe bone pain (common in the lumbar spine and pelvis)
Increased risk of unexplained fractures
Lower limb/perineal edema
Persistent cough, chest pain (alert to lung metastasis)
Jaundice, discomfort in the liver area (possible liver metastasis)
Headache, confusion (brain metastasis signal)
Oncologists remind:
After the age of 50, it is recommended to do PSA testing + rectal examination every year (up to 45 years old if there is a family history)
Do not blindly take anti-inflammatory drugs when hematuria occurs, do a urinary tract ultrasound examination first
If bone pain persists for 2 weeks without relief, a full-body bone scan is recommended
