Symptoms of prostate cancer and the treatment of pathology depend on what stage of development are the degenerated tissues. The primary signs are implicit, smooth and may indicate different disorders of the body. However, they are definitely worth paying attention to.

Frequent use of the toilet for "little need." For the night, patient for this purpose gets up at least two times. In the afternoon he visits the bathroom every hour, or even more often - the fluid from the bubble is not completely removed. In this connection, there remains a feeling of overcrowding, and there is another intention to visit toilet.
Urination is difficult. A man has to strain the muscles of the peritoneum to empty the bladder.
Urine leaves the body in a very thin, sometimes intermittent stream.
Urination is often uncomfortable. In some cases, it is accompanied by a painful syndrome.
However, patients often ignore them, not suspecting prostate cancer: the symptoms resemble the course of many diseases of the genitourinary system. They should not be run either. But men often think that they are “cold” and are in no hurry to see a doctor.

At later stages, additional symptoms of prostate cancer are added to these symptoms. The prognosis of treatment at the same time significantly worsens, but remains relatively favorable. Side effects include:

Nausea, possibly vomiting. Often these symptoms are accompanied by constipation;
Confused consciousness. Both signs are the result of poisoning of the body by the waste products of cancer cells;
Bone fragility - due to the development of a malignant tumor, calcium is washed out of bone tissue. At this stage, spontaneous fractures are often observed, which is impossible with normal bone strength;
Swelling of the tissues, primarily on the limbs, then in the inguinal region. Often, edema affects only one side of the body.

In the later stages, prostate adenoma cancer gives even more symptoms.

Dyspnea.
Pain in the sternum.
Cough with blood clots (metastases provoke changes in the respiratory system and the development of pleurisy).
Genital and back pain: cancer cells invade the spinal cord and squeeze the spinal column.
Weakening of muscle tissue.
Development of enuresis.

At the terminal stage, the most severe symptoms and signs of prostate cancer appear. The treatment and prognosis of the results are disappointing. The patient experiences difficulties with movement, loses weight, has a cognitive impairment. Metastases affect the whole body and complications take on a character incompatible with patient's life.

To detect carcinoma, a comprehensive examination is required. It includes the following procedures.

Blood test for PSA tumor marker. If result is high, most likely, the body is forming a malignant tumor of the prostate gland.,

Rectal examination aimed at examining the condition of the prostate gland.

Ultrasound first of all, abdominal ultrasound is performed. If there is reason for suspicion of cancer, a transrectal ultrasound is prescribed. During this procedure, a specific device is inserted into the rectum, transmitting data to the monitor.

MRI and / or CT

Radioisotope examination

Roentgenography

Uroflowmetry

Biopsy: Prostate fragment sampling followed by biomaterial examination.
