Patient's question:
In the past two months, every time I urinate, I experience pain during urination. I also have a bit of urinary frequency and urgency, and my libido has decreased significantly. During sexual activity, it doesn't last more than a few minutes, and I feel very tired. My lower back aches severely. Yesterday, when I urinated, there was a bit of blood in my urine, and I was very worried. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and they said I have prostate cancer. Can it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostate cancer develops in a hidden and insidious manner. In the early stages, since the tumor has not yet invaded surrounding tissues, there are often no specific clinical diagnostic symptoms. The symptoms are similar to those of benign prostatic hyperplasia, and may also include frequent urination, urgency, and difficulty urinating. Prostate conditions can be prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should immediately seek professional and reputable medical treatment, and treatment decisions should be based on careful examination results. It is also important to maintain a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
