Patient's question:
When I went to the bathroom yesterday, it felt a bit uncomfortable, like I wasn't fully emptying my bladder, and I also noticed that my hemorrhoids seem to be getting worse. Could this be a recurrence of my benign prostatic hyperplasia, causing pressure?Could you please tell me what the cost of a diagnosis for benign prostatic hyperplasia would be?
Doctor's answer:
Prostate enlargement is a common disease in middle-aged and elderly men, and it is difficult to treat. The probability of recurrence after self-healing is also high. Therefore, the cost of treating prostate enlargement has become a focal point for men. In clinical diagnosis, the traditional treatments for prostate enlargement mainly include two methods: medication and surgery. Medication not only requires long-term use, imposing a significant financial burden on patients, but also generally yields no significant results. Surgical treatment, on the other hand, has issues such as high difficulty, high risk of injury, and high safety concerns.
