Patient's question:
These days, I don't know what's wrong, I always feel like I need to urinate urgently, but 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: If you have benign prostatic hyperplasia, how should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is a relatively common chronic condition unique to elderly men. As people age, the connective tissue in the prostate begins to fibrosis. In severe cases, the volume of the gland can be 10 to 15 times larger than a normal prostate. The enlarged prostate stimulates the control of the urethra, leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, dribbling, and difficulty urinating. Over time, it can also cause many serious complications, such as urethral infection, bladder stones, and kidney damage. Prostate hyperplasia, except for late-stage severe cases requiring surgery, still relies on medication as a basic and effective treatment measure.
