Patient's question:
Doctor, I have frequent urination and pain during urination. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said I have benign prostatic hyperplasia. How do I treat benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
The treatment methods for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are primarily based on medication and surgery. Surgical treatment is most commonly used to address symptoms such as delayed urination caused by fibrous adenoma. Personally, I prefer the implementation of minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation therapy. In terms of diet, it is important to consume more tomatoes and avoid prolonged sitting or standing. The condition of BPH tends to recur, requiring long-term medication for management. For male patients, it is essential to seek medical attention at professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, maintain personal hygiene, and wish all patients a speedy recovery.
