Patient's question:
A year ago, I was diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). After taking Proscar and Tamsulosin Capsules for a period of time, my condition improved significantly. However, it has now recurred, and I need to urinate several times every night. During this period, I have taken a lot of traditional Chinese medicine and health supplements, such as Guibie Wan. Now, when I take Proscar again, I experience pain and eczema, accompanied by varicose veins. I would like to ask you a few times—what kind of medicine are you good at, and what should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is common in elderly men, primarily characterized by increased nocturia. It is recommended that if itching reappears after medication, consideration should be given to an allergy, and the medication should be discontinued. If there is no significant effect after medication, surgery may be considered for treatment. The prostate condition is severe, and it is advised that patients seek immediate treatment and follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, dietary issues should be paid attention to, avoiding spicy foods to prevent worsening the condition.
