Patient's question:
When I went to the bathroom yesterday, it felt a bit awkward, like I wasn't fully emptying my bladder. Also, I think my hemorrhoids are getting worse. Could this be my benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) coming back again, causing pressure?Question: What are the early signs of benign prostatic hyperplasia?
Doctor's answer:
The etiology of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is very complex. If men suffer from BPH, they may experience urinary problems again, leading to urinary obstruction, and in severe cases, it may even result in kidney failure. Therefore, once men are diagnosed with the condition, they must actively seek treatment.What are the hazards of BPH?
1. BPH can cause the male bladder to lose effective control over urination, leading to symptoms such as urinary urgency, frequent urination, incomplete urination, and painful urination. This severely affects the normal life and work of men.
2. If men suffer from BPH, it can cause urinary obstruction, reducing the internal pressure of the bladder. This may lead to urinary infections in the kidneys and ureters, ultimately resulting in conditions such as acute and chronic pyelonephritis and other kidney diseases in men.
