Patient's question:
Since the beginning of the year, I've been feeling like I have a lot of nighttime urination, and I also have frequent urination during the day. When I urinate, there's a stinging sensation, and the amount of urine isn't much. I also always feel like I can't empty my bladder completely. My lower back, waist, and abdomen also hurt badly. I suspect it might be prostatitis. Please ask: How can I treat prostatitis cysts effectively?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is a common disease that leads to urinary dysfunction. The main causes are age-related growth and functional testicles. Specific treatment depends on the severity of the disease. For milder symptoms, oral medications such as terazosin can be used, but attention should be paid to orthostatic hypotension. Other options include finasteride, etc. If there is severe intestinal obstruction and a large amount of residual urine, surgical treatment may be necessary. For patients with prostate hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life while avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
