Patient's question:
This week, I've been feeling like I can't fully empty my bladder when urinating, and it seems like I lack strength when urinating. The stream is very thin, and I even feel like I can't urinate properly. Is this condition related to benign prostatic hyperplasia? If so, could you please advise on the best treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Dang Shen and Astragalus Winter Melon Soup: Dang Shen (Party Polygonatum), Astragalus (Huang Qi), winter melon, MSG, sesame oil, and a moderate amount of salt. Boil Dang Shen and Astragalus in a clay pot with water for 15 minutes, remove the solids, and keep the liquid. Add the Dang Shen and winter melon to the liquid until the winter melon is cooked. Then add the seasonings and it's ready. It can be used as a side dish and has the effects of strengthening the spleen, boosting energy, raising yang, and promoting diuresis. Prostate enlargement can be cured, but the treatment process is usually slow and prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medication must be used according to symptoms during treatment. Additionally, patients should follow a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
