Patient's question:
My grandfather has been experiencing a feeling of incomplete urination in the past few months, and he also faces symptoms such as slow urination, difficulty urinating, weak urine stream, dribbling urine, intermittent urination, and incomplete urination when using the restroom. After being diagnosed by a doctor, it was found to be benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). What symptoms can be expected in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Currently, the possibility of the patient's diagnosis is more likely to be benign prostatic hyperplasia. The symptoms of this disease are the symptoms mentioned above. Based on your current condition, I recommend that you go to the hospital for a prostate ultrasound and a routine examination of prostatic fluid to confirm the diagnosis. You can choose to take finasteride orally. For patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it is not treated in a timely manner, it may affect your physical condition. Therefore, patients should take medication according to their symptoms and avoid overwork in daily life, while also paying attention to personal hygiene.
