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 related to benign prostatic hyperplasia? If so, could you please ask: Can benign prostatic hyperplasia be relieved?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is one of the common multi-occurring diseases in elderly men. Based on your age, the recurrence of fibrosis may be related to prolonged sitting with urine retention, drug use, hormonal imbalance, and other factors. The medication you mentioned may be ineffective. If you currently experience urinary discomfort, you can take anti-inflammatory drugs and Pulegan tablets orally.In daily life, pay attention to staying active, avoid prolonged sitting with urine retention, do not wear tight underwear, refrain from sexual activity, maintain regular and hygienic sexual habits, drink plenty of water, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, avoid spicy foods, alcohol, and smoking. For patients with prostate hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive targeted treatment promptly and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to prevent prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
