Patient's question:
Yesterday when I was using the restroom, it felt a bit awkward, like I wasn't fully emptying my bladder. Also, I feel like my hemorrhoids are getting worse. Is this because my prostate enlargement is flaring up again, causing pressure?Question: How can prostate enlargement be detected?
Doctor's answer:
Hello: It is recommended that you use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the location of benign prostatic hyperplasia is in the bladder, and its etiology and pathogenesis are closely related to the transformation of the Sanjiao Qi. Traditional Chinese medicine also believes that the regulatory function of the lungs, the signal transmission function of the spleen, and the functions of other zang-fu organs are closely related to the transformation of the bladder, which in turn can also affect urinary function. The bladder is ranked below the five zang-fu organs and is the destination for water fluids of the Sanjiao. It is an important organ for storing body fluids, metabolizing urine, transforming Qi and promoting water movement, as well as participating in decomposition metabolism. The kidney is paired with the bladder, and the transformation of the bladder depends on the function of the kidney. Patients should believe that they can overcome the disease. As long as treatment is timely in the early stages, the chances of controlling the condition and recovery are very high.
