Column: Risk factors and symptoms of prostate cancer
March is Prostate Cancer Awareness month which puts the spotlight on this silent killer.
Mr Andy Symes, consultant urologist at The Montefiore Hospital in Hove, urges men to recognise the risk factors and take control of their own health.
He said: “In my experience, it is often the partners of men with a prostate problem who encourage them to finally go and see their GP. However, I know when I reach the age of 45 to 50, I will book myself in for prostate tests as part of a well man health check – whether I have a prostate problem or not.
