Patient's question:
My husband has been complaining about pain in his lower abdomen recently, specifically mentioning that his prostate is a bit sore. At first, I didn't take it seriously and told him to just pay attention to hygiene, and he didn't go to see a doctor. But these past few days, the pain has become much worse, sometimes even when he's standing. I want to take him for a thorough examination. How much does a prostate check-up cost?Doctor's answer:
If you feel pain in the prostate area again, and if there are symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, and dysuria, it is very likely that you may have prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, or even prostate cancer. Therefore, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a thorough examination, including a color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate, routine prostatic fluid analysis, and tumor markers. These examinations are not very expensive in clinical diagnosis. After the examination is clear, the treatment plan can be determined based on the results. For patients with prostate conditions, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If treatment is not timely, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic treatment and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
