4. Prostate cancer
After skin cancer, prostate cancer is the second most common type of cancer among American men. According to the American Cancer Society, the estimates for 2023 are the following: prostate cancer is going to cause about 34,700 deaths, and there are going to be approximately 288.300 new cases of prostate cancer.
In his lifetime, one out of every eight men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer, and more than half of them are older than 65 years. The average age at diagnosis is 66 years.
If the cancer enters stage 4, that means it has metastasized, and prostate cancer is known to spread to the bones. More than 60% of men with stage 4 prostate cancer have bone metastases.
It is better to seek treatment if you notice any symptoms because this can help you manage any complications, like severe pains and fractures.
