Patient's question:
The day before yesterday, I went for a check-up and was diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia. How should it be treated? How should benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated?Doctor's answer:
The enlargement of the prostate in young men is caused by inflammatory stimulation, not the kind of prostate hyperplasia and enlargement seen in older adults. Further examination of prostatic fluid is recommended. As long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle and take appropriate medication, it can be controlled.It is advised to reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods in your diet, avoid prolonged sitting, and engage in regular exercise to prevent prostate issues. Additionally, consuming more foods beneficial to the prostate, such as pumpkin seeds and tomatoes, can be helpful.
For patients, if the condition of prostate enlargement is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered with proper medication, otherwise, it may lead to complications of prostate enlargement.
Moreover, patients should pay attention to their diet and psychological care. It is hoped that the answers to these questions will be helpful to everyone. Thank you.
