Patient's question:
This week, I've been feeling like I can't fully empty my bladder when urinating, and it seems like I lack 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 (BPH)? If so, please ask: How can I be diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Lower abdominal pain is not a primary symptom of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH); BPH is typically characterized by difficulties in urination, weak urine stream, and other related symptoms. If BPH leads to urinary retention, it may cause lower abdominal pain. The center of the lower abdomen is also the location of the rectum, and rectal inflammation can also result in lower abdominal pain. In addition to medication treatment for BPH, patients need to pay attention to dietary aspects, such as maintaining a balanced diet and keeping a positive mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a top-tier hospital for diagnosis to ensure effective treatment.
