Patient's question:
A while ago, due to poor health, I caught a cold several times and went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor surprisingly recommended a prostate examination, and the results showed that I had chronic prostatic hyperplasia. After hearing this, I was in shock. What is going on? How should chronic prostatic hyperplasia be treated effectively?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is based on stabilizing urinary symptoms, alleviating complications, and protecting renal function. It is important to pay attention to climate changes to prevent cold exposure, occupational infections, and to avoid drug use, smoking, and consuming spicy foods. Increase physical activity and maintain a calm mindset, drink water appropriately, and prevent holding urine. It is recommended to visit a hospital for examination to clarify the condition and determine an appropriate treatment plan. For BPH patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of exacerbation, while delayed treatment may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
