Patient's question:
To check and confirm the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia, I haven't had any significant symptoms during this period. Recently, I've felt abdominal fullness, and urination has been intermittent. I've been waking up frequently at night, and during the day, I've also experienced frequent and urgent urination. Does this mean my condition is serious? Please ask: What are the general precautions to be aware of in the care of benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
There are many treatment methods for this condition, such as drug therapy and physical therapy. The most advanced treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) currently is transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). This method of treating BPH is effective quickly, leads to a rapid and complete recovery, has a low risk of recurrence, and causes minimal harm. BPH is prone to recurrence, and long-term medication is often required. For male patients, it is important to seek professional and regular medical attention immediately and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, pay attention to personal hygiene, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
