Patient's question:
Urgency to urinate. Frequent urination. Incomplete urination, urinary pain. What is the cause of the swelling in the feet? It has been five days since the catheter was inserted. Can the catheter be removed if it still can't urinate? Can an enlarged prostate be treated?Doctor's answer:
It should be urinary retention caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia. It is recommended to undergo transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), or if surgery is not feasible due to health conditions, suprapubic cystostomy can be performed. Go to the hospital for a thorough examination to determine the most suitable treatment for the patient. Timely treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia can reduce recurrence, whereas delayed treatment may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take oral medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
