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 a bit of pain. After checking at the hospital, the doctor said it's benign prostatic hyperplasia. Please ask: What are the methods for choosing a hospital for benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Incontinence is also one of the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The amount of residual urine gradually increases, and when there is a significant amount of residual urine, there is often overflow incontinence. Frequent dribbling of urine can make the patient's pants wet, causing great distress. These are all symptoms of BPH. Therefore, if a man experiences physical discomfort, he should not delay seeking treatment. Prompt treatment is key.It should be noted that drinking too much water is also not advisable. From 7 to 8 PM until bedtime, it is best to drink less or avoid water altogether. Avoid eating watermelon or consuming caffeine-containing beverages to prevent urinary retention, which can cause the full bladder to exert pressure on the prostate, leading to recurrent congestion and poor drainage.
