Can elderly men with benign prostatic hyperplasia be cured?

Patient's question:

My father is 79 years old this year. He had a prostate hyperplasia surgery ten years ago. After the surgery, his symptoms were somewhat relieved, but as he has aged, he now experiences incomplete urination, difficulty urinating, and a large amount of white in his urine. When the condition is severe, he goes to the children's hospital to get some anti-inflammatory medication to alleviate it. Can it be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Prostate Hyperplasia Prostate hyperplasia is a common disease among elderly men. Treating prostate hyperplasia is a long-term process. Once diagnosed, patients must follow medical advice to take medication, absolutely not stopping or reducing the dosage on their own, and undergo regular follow-up examinations to adjust the treatment plan in a timely manner based on the condition. In terms of diet, daily life, and living habits, it is important to avoid foods and alcohol; pay attention to preventing colds; avoid strenuous exercise, prolonged sitting, and long-distance bicycle riding; and urinate promptly, absolutely not holding in urine.
