Prostate Cancer
Facts And Statistics Of Importance
Many people are still very ignorant about this condition known as
cancer of the prostate. They think they really know all there is to
know about it but they are dead wrong. And in case you have never
heard of this statement before, you should now – ignorance is NOT
bliss when it comes to your health. It’s important to know all there
is to know about prostate-cancer, if you are worried about it. This
article helps to provide you with some of the important statistics
of this condition. Knowing them will give you a better
understanding.
They say there
is no cure for cancer, and perhaps they are right to some degree;
with the level of variation that the disease presents, the number of
casualties documented annually in the United States alone, with the
different approaches to dealing with the condition, and considering
the variety of the results that are often obtained, of course there
is no cure for cancer; at least not a definitive one, and certainly
not yet. But I suppose in some sense you could argue that prostate
cancer is indeed curable. This might be startling to you if you were
just privy to the unfriendly statistics of the malignancy of the
prostate.
Keep reading
nonetheless. You will learn things you didn’t know before today.
• It is the ninth most common cancer in the whole world, not just in
the United States
• It is the second most common cancer among men in the United
States, after skin cancer
• It is the second most common cause of cancer deaths among men in
the United States, after lung cancer
• Over 230,000 new cases of this condition are diagnosed annually
• Over 27,000 casualties from prostate type of cancer alone each
year
• No early symptoms of the condition.
Facts like that
would scare anybody, especially the symptoms part. I mean, how can
you cure a disease that has no early symptoms; how on earth do you
know that you have the man killer disease?
Simple and
straightforward enough questions; the statement was not that there
are no symptoms for prostate cancer, but that there are no early
symptoms of the melanoma. That means that during the initial
incidence and development of the disease, you won’t even feel a
thing. And if you go on living your merry life from there, you would
only be giving it a chance to fester, and grow, and metastasize… and
kill you. Perish the thought!
