Patient's question:
These days, I don't know what's wrong, but I always feel a strong urge to urinate. However, when I go to the toilet, it feels like there isn't much urine. Sometimes it's just a drop or two. During morning urination, I even noticed that my urine was split. Please ask: Where is it better to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Prostate enlargement, also known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), primarily presents with progressive urinary difficulties, including weak urine flow, urine splitting, and post-micturition dribbling. In severe cases, it may lead to recurrent urinary retention.If the symptoms are mild and do not significantly interfere with deep sleep, medication is generally not recommended. Instead, daily lifestyle adjustments should be observed, such as avoiding prolonged sitting, abstaining from alcohol, and reducing the intake of spicy and irritating foods. For severe cases, surgical treatment for BPH is advised. The condition tends to recur easily, requiring long-term medication for management.
