Patient's question:
My wife asked me to do a thorough check-up in this area, but I'm not really keen on it. How is a prostate health check performed? What exactly does it involve? What specific issues can be detected through a detailed examination? Are there any key points to pay attention to before the check-up? What should I do then?Doctor's answer:
Prostate examinations mainly involve a prostate ultrasound and a routine night examination of the prostate. His health check actually involves a detailed examination of the prostate through the rectal position, which is conducted by the urology department. This aims to determine the hardness of the prostate gland, in addition to its size. It is also possible to perform a microscopic examination of prostatic fluid by massaging and expressing the prostate. Then, a prostate ultrasound screening is conducted to assess how uniform the echoes are and to check for any abnormal appearances.
