Patient's question:
To check and confirm the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia, I haven't had any obvious symptoms during this period. Recently, I've felt abdominal fullness, and urination has been intermittent. I always wake up at night, and during the day, I also feel frequent urination and urgency. Does this mean my condition is serious? Please ask: How can benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated to recover more quickly?Doctor's answer:
Hello, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease in elderly men. The causes are mainly related to factors such as inflammation and infection of the prostate. Mild fibrosis can be relieved through conservative treatment, but severe fibrosis may affect urination function, ultimately requiring surgical removal as a treatment option. BPH is a serious condition, and patients are advised to seek timely treatment and follow their doctor's recommendations for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, it is important to pay attention to self-care, including a proper diet, to avoid worsening the condition. The above information is hoped to help you. Thank you.
