Patient's question:
How can this disease be treated? Can it be treated once with surgery? How should benign prostatic hyperplasia be handled?Doctor's answer:
Prostate enlargement is primarily related to lifestyle habits and age, especially age. The prostate gradually undergoes benign fibrosis with age, so prostate enlargement is also a common condition among many middle-aged and elderly men. My father-in-law previously had prostate enlargement, mainly characterized by persistent urinary obstruction, dribbling urine, difficulty holding urine, and sometimes being unable to urinate at all. He was catheterized several times, but the treatment process was generally slow, and the condition often relapsed after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's plan, use medications appropriately, and avoid prolonged sitting or riding. Additionally, patients should pay attention to personal hygiene.
