Prostate cancer is a common tumor in clinic, and some patients are diagnosed with advanced stage. Some data show that about 1/3 of the patients in China are diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer at the beginning of the diagnosis, but it is not as high as 90%.
Early symptoms of prostate cancer, such as frequent urination, urinary urgency, increased nocturia, etc., are not typical, so the condition may be delayed due to the lack of timely access to hospitals, resulting in late diagnosis, at which time the patient may have already developed metastasis.
Clinical tests such as prostate-specific antigen and rectal examination can be used to assist in the early detection of prostate cancer. Patients with symptoms such as frequent urination and urgency are advised to seek timely medical attention for early diagnosis to prevent disease progression.
For patients with prostate cancer, it is recommended to go to regular hospitals, consult professional doctors, cooperate with doctors to improve laboratory tests and actively deal with it.
