Prostate cancer occupies the first place in male malignant tumors in the United States, and the mortality rate is only after lung cancer, and the incidence rate is also extremely high in China, and the incidence rate has been increasing in recent years.
If men want to avoid joining the ranks of prostate cancer patients, they should pay attention to the prostate and protect the prostate well. In particular, the following three types of men are very susceptible to prostate cancer, so you need to be vigilant!
1. Men with bad lives
Everyone knows that smoking is harmful to health, and there are more than 40 carcinogens in cigarettes, no matter which one of them, it will greatly increase the risk of prostate cancer in the body. Not only that, but it is also easy to cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, lung cancer, and liver cancer.
Men who drink a lot of alcohol should also pay attention to the fact that their blood vessels will become dilated and hardened due to excessive alcohol intake, which is easy to cause high blood pressure, liver disease, gastrointestinal diseases, and alcohol will also cause excessive congestion in the prostate area, and over time, it is not impossible to suffer from prostate cancer.
Some men usually prefer to eat meat and spicy and stimulating food, but rarely eat vegetables and fruits, which will lead to unbalanced nutrition in the body, excessive stimulation and damage to the stomach and intestines, and abnormal metabolic detoxification function of the body, which will also affect the health of the prostate.
2. Men with a history of prostate disease
Some men have had diseases such as prostatitis, prostatic hyperplasia or prostate enlargement in their early years, and if these diseases are not completely cured, there is a possibility that cancer cells will slowly grow and cause damage to the body when they are aging and their body functions are declining.
3. Older males
As a person gets older, the body's functions begin to deteriorate, and the function of the prostate gland will gradually weaken, and its ability to resist diseases will become worse and worse. In particular, some men rarely exercise, and as they get older, after the age of 65 or 70, various diseases are easy to come to the door, and prostate cancer is one of them.
Do the following two things to prevent prostate!
1. Develop good living habits
1. Avoid sitting for long periods of time
When people sit still for a long time, it will lead to excessive congestion in the pelvic area, and the prostate is in the pelvis, if a man usually rarely gets up and moves because of work or study, the prostate will also be congested a lot, overstimulated, over time, not only easy to cause prostatitis, but also easy to cause other diseases.
Once prostatitis occurs, if you do not pay attention to the treatment of the disease and correct the habit of sitting for a long time, the chance of developing prostate cancer will also be greatly increased.
2. Pay attention to what you eat
If you want to prevent the prostate, men should try to avoid smoking, drinking alcohol and eating too spicy and stimulating foods, so as to reduce the stimulation of the body and prevent excessive prostate congestion. In fact, eat more foods that are good for the prostate, such as tomatoes, broccoli, mushrooms, garlic, ginkgo, etc.
3. Appropriate sex
Men can usually have a moderate sex life, about 1 to 2 times a week, so that the prostate can get enough rest, and will not cause irritation and damage to the prostate due to semen retention in the body for a long time.
2. Regularly go to the hospital for physical examination
Physical examination is also a kind of prevention and detection of prostate cancer, especially for men with a family history of prostate cancer, it is best to do prostate cancer screening once a year after the age of 45, so that you can understand the health status of the prostate, once the prostate lesion is found, it is best to deal with it in time, so that the prostate can be restored to a healthy state.
In summary, prostate cancer is a serious threat to men's lives, and there are a variety of clinical treatments, such as surgical resection, chemotherapy, castration therapy, endocrine therapy and cytochrome oxidase inhibition therapy.
If prostate cancer is diagnosed at an early stage, it can be cured with aggressive treatment, but if the disease is detected at an advanced stage, the cancer cells have already spread, making the male life expectancy shorter. Therefore, it is recommended that men protect their prostate and stay away from prostate cancer.
