Patient's question:
Diagnosed with prostate cancer, currently mainly showing symptoms of cervical pain, back pain, and lower back pain. Feels like there's something foreign in the mouth, speech is not loud, and chest pain occurs during coughing. Want to understand the reason?Doctor's answer:
The exact cause of prostate cancer is not clear, but it may be related to smoking, prostate inflammation, or exposure to industrial carcinogens like cadmium in early adulthood. Generally, the risk of developing prostate cancer increases with age. Lifestyle and dietary habits can influence the likelihood of prostate cancer, with a sedentary lifestyle and a high-fat diet potentially leading to the condition. Additionally, apart from hereditary factors, prostate conditions tend to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. It is important to actively seek diagnosis from professional and reputable hospitals, and to pay attention to quitting smoking and drinking, as well as maintaining personal hygiene.
