Patient's question:
Doctor, I have benign prostatic hyperplasia, but I don't understand this disease. I would like to consult, what are the common treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
If symptoms are detected, it is recommended to promptly go to the hospital for examination and treatment to avoid delaying the condition and interfering with health. Treatment methods include general treatment and medication, among others. During the illness, it is important to avoid alcohol and smoking to prevent irritation from tobacco and alcohol from causing congestion and edema in the prostate and bladder neck, which may subsequently lead to urinary retention. Rest is essential, and overexertion should be avoided. There are many treatment methods for benign prostatic hyperplasia, but since the condition of each patient is different, the treatment methods used will also vary. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek diagnosis as soon as possible to receive appropriate treatment.
