Can benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated and improved?

Patient's question:

Prostatic hyperplasia. It has been over ten years. Now, frequent urination, urgent urination, incomplete urination, delayed urination with dripping, urinary retention, and pain from bladder fullness.

Doctor's answer:

Based on your description, a comprehensive analysis suggests that your condition may be caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and urinary tract infections (stones), leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, incomplete emptying, hesitancy, dribbling, urinary retention, and pain from bladder fullness. For BPH treatment, Finasteride is used to relax the smooth muscles of the prostate, alleviating symptoms. However, it is essential to follow standardized (anti-inflammatory) treatment under the guidance of a doctor and undergo regular follow-up examinations.
Since face-to-face consultation is not possible, a thorough understanding of the condition is needed for further diagnosis. You should visit a private tertiary hospital's urology department for a detailed examination. Based on your symptoms and physical signs, the doctor will conduct auxiliary clinical diagnostic tests (such as blood, urine, and stool tests, ultrasound, cystoscopy, prostatic fluid culture, and drug sensitivity tests) to identify the underlying cause. After determining the cause, targeted treatment can be administered. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can also be used to expel toxins, promote diuresis, activate blood circulation, and resolve blood stasis.
