Patient's question:
These past few days, I don't know what's wrong, I always feel like I need to urinate urgently, but when I go to the toilet, it feels like there isn't much urine. Sometimes it's just a drop or two. During morning urination, I even noticed that my urine was split. After consulting, it seems to be prostatic hyperplasia. I ask: How can one improve after getting prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia often recurs in elderly individuals over the age of 50. It is a common condition that significantly reduces the health of elderly men due to a noticeable shrinkage of the prostate. Modern medicine believes that prostate hyperplasia is related to the endocrine system, resulting from fibrosis of the epithelial cells and stromal fibers of the inner urethral glands and suburethral glands, cystic expansion of the acini, and fibrosis of connective tissues and smooth muscle bundles. Since the prostate is located at the bladder outlet, surrounding the urethra in a unique position, once fibrosis occurs, it can constrict the urethra from all sides, obstructing the flow of urine from the bladder, leading to a series of inflammatory conditions in the urinary system. This can also adversely affect sexual health.
