Patient's question:
I am 32 years old. During a health check-up at my workplace, I was carefully diagnosed with mild benign prostatic hyperplasia. I would like to know, is this condition serious? How should benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated properly?Doctor's answer:
Hello. For treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), simply using anti-inflammatory treatments may not be very effective. Using appropriate antibiotics to treat chronic bacterial prostatitis is more effective. Combining this with physical therapy can yield better results, with a shorter course of treatment and a lower risk of recurrence. However, the treatment duration should not be excessively long, as BPH tends to fluctuate, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek professional and reputable medical care immediately. Treatment should be considered only after thorough examination results are obtained. It is also important to control sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
