Men in Debrecen, attention: even a drop of blood indicates if there is a problem! – with photos, video
Debrecen – You want to address men with “Move, Debrecen!” free screening program in november. Applicants are invited to PSA screening at four locations on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It already indicates a drop of blood if there is a problem. 1,500 men die of prostate cancer in Hungary every year, although recognizing it in time can cure it.
A needle stick, a drop of blood and a few minutes of waiting – that’s all, and it turns out if you need to see a specialist. The “Move, Debrecen!” program began screening men for prostate, for which many apply as early as the first day.
November is the month for men, so in addition to measuring their blood sugar and cholesterol levels, they can also take part in a free PSA test. They want to reach out to all men over the age of 40 in Debrecen. Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in the stronger sex.
– Four thousand of our compatriots are diagnosed with this disease every year and 1,500 die. This means that I often notice it very late and it is no longer possible to help with the problem
– warns Csaba Papp, director of the Debrecen Institute for Primary Care and Health Development.
However, early detection can also successfully cure this disease. A good opportunity for this is “Move, Debrecen!” filtering campaign.
“This screening we do is really a community activity. We talk to everyone comfortably and kindly, and everyone gets the right advice. Perhaps the most important thing is that all this is not happening in a medical institution, but in a community house that is close to our apartment, close to their living situation, accessible in a few minutes, said Deputy Mayor Diana Wide.
Men from Debrecen are waiting for free PSA screening at four locations every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon until the end of the month.
