Patient's question:
When I went to the bathroom yesterday, it felt a bit awkward, like I couldn't fully empty my bladder. Also, I think my hemorrhoids are getting worse. Could this be a recurrence of my benign prostatic hyperplasia, causing pressure?Question: How can I treat benign prostatic hyperplasia more quickly?
Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is a common disease that causes urinary dysfunction. The main causes are related to aging and the presence of 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. If there is severe intestinal obstruction and a large amount of residual urine, surgical treatment may be necessary.In addition to timely treatment for prostate hyperplasia, patients should maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can they reduce their immunity and strengthen their will to fight the illness. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care and monitor changes in their symptoms, believing that this will help drive away prostate hyperplasia.
