Patient's question:
Patient: Male, 82 years old. After four years of prostate surgery, he experienced hematuria again. Two days later, he could no longer urinate. Could it be due to wound dehiscence? The whole family is very worried and also worried if it is really prostate cancer?Previous treatment and outcomes: He took medication and the hematuria stopped that day, but he urinated again at night. Two days later, he had difficulty urinating.
What kind of assistance is needed: Could it be cancerous? How should it be treated? Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
Hematuria is mainly caused by urinary system diseases, such as renal tuberculosis, nephritis, urinary tract infection, urinary tract stones, and urinary tract tumors.Medical Advice: It is recommended to visit a hospital for a kidney ultrasound examination. If urination cannot be achieved, a catheter may be necessary. Prostate conditions tend to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek treatment from professional and reputable hospitals. Treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
