Patient's question:
Frequent urination, urgent urination, difficulty urinating, and hesitancy in urination have been occurring for two or three months. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The ultrasound results showed benign prostatic hyperplasia. The doctor said that most people over the age of 60 will experience this condition. Treatment takes time. I would like to ask how should benign prostatic hyperplasia be treated?Doctor's answer:
Recurrent benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) often leads to the clinical symptoms of frequent urination, dysuria, and incomplete urination. If the symptoms are mild, oral medication is usually effective. Commonly used medications include anti-prostate hyperplasia drugs. If the BPH is severe and causes urinary difficulties, surgical treatment may be necessary. Avoid drinking beer and consuming irritating foods. Additionally, during the treatment period, the patient's dietary condition and care are also crucial. It is important for patients to rest properly and engage in appropriate activities to prevent unnecessary harm.
