Patient's question:
Lower abdominal distension has been bothering me for years. Now I'm taking Proscar and Flomax for benign prostatic hyperplasia and calcification, but I'm having difficulty urinating. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
At your age, you should have a follow-up CT scan of the prostate to check for any abnormal fibrosis, and examine the prostatic fluid for any abnormalities. It is important to pay attention to appropriate moisturizing and clearing heat, ensure deep sleep by adjusting your lifestyle habits, and pay attention to dietary regulation and proper rest to regulate qi and blood. Also, maintain a balanced diet to regulate your mood. Medications can be used for benign prostatic hyperplasia, as the condition tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is crucial to immediately seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet.
