Patient's question:
A 31-year-old man gradually started feeling uncomfortable in his body, not knowing what was wrong, and seemed to lack energy. Please ask: What are the general symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia are primarily related to the anatomical position of the prostate gland, as it is located near the urethra. When fibrosis occurs, it can lead to urethral narrowing, resulting in difficulties with urination and dysuria. Additionally, if the fibrosis is severe, it may cause urinary retention, oliguria, or even anuria. Lastly, during treatment, patients need to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate their physical and mental health, and keep good hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
