Does the lower urinary tract still have obstruction?

Patient's question:

Male ultrasound shows no enlargement of the prostate. For the lower urinary tract, apart from ruling out intestinal obstruction, what other detailed examinations are needed for a definitive diagnosis of intestinal obstruction? What are the symptoms of uncoordinated bladder muscle sphincter?

Doctor's answer:

So what about the color Doppler ultrasound of the urinary system? The prostate is not large, so if further careful examination is needed, then a urodynamic test should be performed. The urodynamic test can distinguish whether it is intestinal obstruction or a problem with the bladder's muscle contraction ability. The coordination issue with the bladder's contraction is also a common cause of urinary difficulties, and it doesn't have any specific symptoms. When patients face prostate interference, we should actively carry out careful examination and treatment, and not avoid seeking medical attention. If the prostate condition does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly switch to an alternative treatment plan.
