Patient's question:
This week, I've been feeling like I can't fully empty my bladder when urinating, and it seems like there's a lack of strength when urinating. The stream is very thin, and I even feel like I can't urinate properly. Is this condition prostatitis? If so, please ask: How to determine if it is prostatitisDoctor's answer:
Based on the symptoms you described, it may be prostatitis, which could be caused by excessive sexual activity or bacterial infection. Oral anti-inflammatory drugs and alpha-blockers can be used for treatment.Prostatic hyperplasia is first identified by its volume. The normal size of the prostate is 4cm x 3cm x 2cm. If it exceeds this range, it is considered prostatic hyperplasia.
In daily life, pay attention to staying active, avoid prolonged sitting and holding urine, prevent exposure to cold, maintain good hygiene of the external genitalia, and avoid sexual activity. During acute phases of the condition, sexual activity is strictly prohibited. Avoid extremely cold and spicy foods, as well as smoking and alcohol.
Prostatic hyperplasia tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, restraint in sexual activity and maintaining a positive mood are crucial. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
