Patient's question:
Go to check and confirm the diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia. During this period, I haven't had any obvious symptoms. Recently, I've felt abdominal fullness, and urination has been intermittent. I always wake up at night, and during the day, I also feel frequent urination and urgency. Is this indicating that my condition is serious? Please ask: How should benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated to improve?Doctor's answer:
Pay special attention to the following points during winter. When going out, not only should you ensure that your underwear and thermal leggings are warm, dry, and comfortable, but you must also avoid sitting on icy benches, stone benches, or gym equipment in places like central park gardens, community fitness centers, or even on rocks and steps when hiking. Whether urinating or sleeping, or exercising outdoors, weaker elderly individuals should be mindful of rain and wind protection to prevent colds. This is because once a cold occurs, many cold remedies can alleviate urinary difficulties in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, even leading to acute urinary retention. Common medications include containing chlorpheniramine maleate, such as Ganmaotong, Fast-acting Cold Capsules, Wencyin Silver Needle Tablets, and Ganmaoling. Some elderly individuals may need to urinate every half hour, though each time is not much but quite relieving.
