How can benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated and managed effectively?

Patient's question:

Actually, it wasn't very serious at first. It was just that every time I urinated, I felt a bit of resistance. Recently, I've noticed the situation is getting worse. Sometimes the urine is very thin, and urination is quite difficult, with some pain involved. After checking at the hospital, the doctor said it's benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). I'm asking: How can benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated and managed effectively?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment methods for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) include active surveillance, medication, surgical treatment, and minimally invasive treatment, among others. Avoid spicy foods, overexertion, and holding urine to prevent colds. Drink plenty of water, avoid prolonged sitting, and strictly avoid alcohol. Timely treatment is crucial if the condition of BPH is severe. It is recommended that patients receive timely symptomatic treatment according to their doctor's advice, and it is hoped that patients can follow their doctor's guidance. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition. The above answers are hoped to help you. Thank you.
