Patient's question:
I would like to inquire about what treatment methods are most effective for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in the elderly.Doctor's answer:
This can be treated surgically. The decision is to opt for minimally invasive surgery. If it is a bladder stone, it can be treated with cystoscopy. At the same time, it is necessary to drink a lot of hot water. It may improve to some extent. There may be a bacterial infection, which can be treated with antibiotics. Prostate hyperplasia can be relieved, but the treatment cycle is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication must be used according to symptoms. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
