Patient's question:
Lately, I've been feeling that my husband's mental state isn't very good. Later, when I asked him, he said that every time he urinates, he automatically feels uncomfortable. After checking the hospital, the result was benign prostatic hyperplasia. I want to know, how is benign prostatic hyperplasia treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia, also known as benign prostatic hypertrophy, is one of the common diseases among elderly men. Its onset is related to hormonal imbalance and endocrine disorders in the elderly. It can lead to urinary tract obstruction. In severe cases, it may cause kidney damage or even lead to uremia. For your condition, it is recommended to visit a hospital for a detailed examination to identify the underlying cause. Prostate hyperplasia can be stabilized, so it is crucial to actively cooperate with your doctor's treatment and take medication appropriately. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
