Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men worldwide. The 66-year-old television presenter made the announcement during the closing episodes of the fifth series of his Amazon Prime Video programme, Clarkson&#8217;s Farm, which dropped overnight and is filmed in Yorkshire.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">In footage recorded while preparing for the harvest, Clarkson breaks the news to his clearly shocked co-stars, Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland, stating bluntly: &#8220;I&#8217;ve got cancer.&#8221; Clarkson explained that he discovered his condition following a medical examination and a subsequent biopsy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">While he acknowledged that the cancer is &#8220;aggressive&#8221;, he offered reassurance to his colleagues and audience that it had been caught at a &#8220;really early stage&#8221;. He disclosed that he&#8217;d undergone a surgical procedure to remove the affected tissue, noting that &#8220;10 per cent&#8221; of his prostate had been excised, reports <a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.examinerlive.co.uk\/news\/health\/jeremy-clarkson-prostate-cancer-symptoms-34134192\" rel=\"follow\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"\">Yorkshire Live<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Yet, the series finale concludes with Clarkson speaking from a hospital bed, where he admits that &#8220;some of the treatment has gone awry&#8221; and that he expects to be sidelined for some time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Prior to the episodes going live, Clarkson posted a video message on his Instagram, warning supporters that the series finale would prove a &#8220;really, really difficult watch&#8221;. He concluded with a poignant message regarding the programme&#8217;s future, stating: &#8220;If this is all successful, I&#8217;ll see you for season six.

The condition primarily strikes older gentlemen, with most diagnoses occurring around the age of 67.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"HeadingThree_heading-three__PBHLs  __className_8c3851\"><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\">What is prostate cancer?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Prostate cancer affects the prostate gland itself. The prostate is a compact gland, roughly walnut-sized, positioned below the bladder. It produces a thick, white substance that mixes with sperm to create semen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The NHS states this form of cancer is most commonly found in blokes over 50, those whose relatives have had prostate cancer, people carrying certain genetic variations, or men of Black African or African Caribbean heritage. Anyone possessing a prostate can contract it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">How serious prostate cancer becomes depends on how quickly it develops and whether it has migrated to different parts of the body. When caught early, prostate cancer can frequently be managed effectively. That said, not every case necessitates treatment. In its early stages, prostate cancer usually doesn&#8217;t trigger any obvious warning signs or symptoms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">As the disease advances, symptoms may emerge, including discomfort in the back, hips, or pelvis, alongside problems achieving erections. Urinary troubles might also occur, though these could signal alternative prostate-related ailments.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"HeadingThree_heading-three__PBHLs  __className_8c3851\"><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\">What are the symptoms of prostate cancer?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">During its early stages, prostate cancer usually presents no warning signs. It tends to emerge in the prostate&#8217;s outer region, which means it doesn&#8217;t compress the urethra &#8211; the channel carrying urine from the bladder through the penis &#8211; so indicators won&#8217;t manifest until the disease has progressed or metastasised.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The NHS states that should this occur, it may trigger alterations in urination patterns, including:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"UnorderedList_unordered-list__gzblI\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"unordered-list\">\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">finding it difficult to start peeing or straining to pee<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">having a weak flow of urine<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">&#8220;stop start&#8221; peeing<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">needing to pee urgently or often, or both<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">feeling like you still need to pee when you&#8217;ve just finished<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">peeing during the night<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Additional indicators may encompass:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"UnorderedList_unordered-list__gzblI\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"unordered-list\">\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">erectile dysfunction (being unable to get or keep an erection)<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">blood in your urine or blood in your semen<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">lower back pain and losing weight without trying to (these may be symptoms of advanced prostate cancer)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"HeadingThree_heading-three__PBHLs  __className_8c3851\"><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\">When should you see a GP?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The NHS says: &#8220;If you&#8217;re having trouble peeing or have other symptoms of prostate cancer, you&#8217;re over 40 years old and genetic tests have shown that you have a faulty version of a gene called BRCA2 (this raises your risk of prostate cancer). And you&#8217;re worried about your risk of prostate cancer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">It adds: &#8220;You can ask your GP about having a blood test (PSA test) that shows if there are any problems with your prostate, even if you do not have symptoms. They&#8217;ll consider your cancer risk to help them decide if the test is the right choice for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"HeadingThree_heading-three__PBHLs  __className_8c3851\"><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\">Important considerations<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Experiencing these indicators doesn&#8217;t necessarily confirm prostate cancer. They might equally arise from benign prostatic enlargement, a widespread non-malignant condition occurring as the prostate naturally expands with advancing years. Some symptoms may become familiar over time, yet it&#8217;s vital to consult a GP if they alter, intensify, or seem abnormal.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"HeadingThree_heading-three__PBHLs  __className_8c3851\"><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\">Who is more likely to get prostate cancer?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The likelihood of developing prostate cancer rises with age and primarily impacts men aged over 50. Anyone who has a prostate can develop it. Your chances of getting prostate cancer may be elevated if:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"UnorderedList_unordered-list__gzblI\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"unordered-list\">\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">you&#8217;re over 50 years old<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">you&#8217;re from a Black African or African Caribbean ethnic background<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">you have a history of prostate cancer in your family<\/li>\n<li class=\"LiItem_li-item__IF4xI\">a close relative has had pancreatic cancer, breast cancer or ovarian cancer, particularly at a young age \u2013 because prostate cancer is sometimes caused by the same inherited genes (a faulty version of a gene called BRCA2)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The NHS advises: &#8220;Speak to a GP if you&#8217;re worried about your prostate cancer risk, even if you do not have any symptoms. Symptoms of prostate cancer do not always appear until the cancer has grown or spread.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailyrecord.co.uk\/news\/health\/symptoms-men-must-look-out-37308020\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jeremy Clarkson has been diagnosed with a serious type of prostate cancer, revealing the news to co-stars Kaleb Cooper and Charlie Ireland on the latest series of Clarkson&#8217;s Farm The NHS lists symptoms of the common cancer(Image: Getty) Jeremy Clarkson has revealed he&#8217;s been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer.
