Patient's question:
Doctor, after I entered middle age, my work pressure has been relatively high. I have experienced frequent nighttime urination, which then recurred during the day as well. My sexual life is not as good as before, and my wife has been complaining. What are the symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Please note whether there is an enlarged bladder. In patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, there is often a large amount of residual urine in the bladder, and an enlarged bladder can usually be palpated during examination. However, if the history is long and the bladder has been in a chronic state of urinary retention for a long time, the enlarged bladder may have a soft and flaccid texture, making it difficult to palpate. In such cases, percussion can be used to identify it.I hope my explanation will be helpful to your treatment. For patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take oral medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
