What is a man's prostate disease? These three are the most common

For adult men, it is imperative to protect the prostate at all times in life, otherwise various prostate diseases will attack and affect life and work. However, some men do not know much about prostate diseases, and do not know what types of prostate diseases are included. Today, I will briefly introduce the common types of prostate diseases.

1. Prostatitis

It is inflammation of the prostate. It can be roughly divided into acute and chronic, but the cause of the disease is caused by bacterial and non-bacterial infection. The main symptoms are painful urination, white urine, burning urine, frequent urination, bloating and discomfort in the lower abdomen and perineum; in more severe cases, fever may occur.

2. Benign prostatic hyperplasia

Benign prostatic hyperplasia is the most common benign disease causing urination problems in middle-aged and elderly men. Its main manifestations are the proliferation of prostatic stroma and glandular components in histology, prostate enlargement in anatomy, clinical symptoms mainly including lower urinary tract symptoms, and bladder outlet obstruction in urodynamics.

3. Prostate cancer

There are usually no special symptoms in the early stages of prostate cancer. When cancer cells grow, the prostate gland enlarges and squeezes the urethra, causing difficulty urinating. These cancer cells can spread to other parts of the body through the blood. The course of the disease is generally slow, and in the late stages it can cause symptoms such as bladder neck obstruction and distant metastasis.
