Patient's question:
After undergoing TURP (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate), I noticed hematuria. I would like to ask what issues should be paid attention to after TURP?Doctor's answer:
According to your description of the condition and speculation, it is likely caused by your neglect of dietary and lifestyle habits. In terms of daily habits and diet, you should avoid smoking, consume less spicy and greasy foods, and drink less coffee and eat fewer citrus fruits with strong acidity. Instead, eat more fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and soy products, as well as fresh honey to maintain regular bowel movements. Consume an adequate amount of beef and eggs. Include seed-based foods like pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds. Boil a sufficient amount of mung beans, let them cool, and eat them freely—this is particularly suitable for those with heat in the bladder and difficulty urinating. Do not increase fluid intake due to frequent urination, nor hold back urine. Drink cool boiled water and avoid drinking strong tea. It should improve significantly after about two weeks.
