5 Things to Know About Prostate Cancer
From the U.S. News & World Report website
Those of us in the medical profession are faced with a dilemma when educating the public about diseases: We need to inform – without creating hysteria. That’s tough to do today; sometimes it’s the less reputable voices that become the loudest, and we begin hearing from patients who “read somewhere” that XYZ condition is caused by “doing something completely normal that basically everyone does.”
Misinformation is the last thing we need because it clouds the truth. And sometimes, changing the way information is delivered can go a long way toward creating understanding and equipping people with the facts to make the best, most informed health decisions. Prostate cancer is one of those conditions surrounded by some reasonably widespread misinformation, and this is an excellent place to help clear it up.
