What is the identification and diagnosis of benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Patient's question:

Men, after experiencing the baptism of life and gradually entering middle and old age due to the decline in physical functions, may also be prone to benign prostatic hyperplasia. Therefore, they need to pay close attention to their health at all times. What are the ways to identify and diagnose benign prostatic hyperplasia?

Doctor's answer:

1. Chronic prostatitis primarily occurs in middle-aged and young adults. The incidence of chronic prostatitis is very low. Most of the prostate does not extend. Digital rectal examination of the prostate can cause tenderness. Prostatic fluid examination shows white blood cells higher than 10 per high field or pus cells.
2. The clinical manifestations of bladder neck fibrosis are similar to those of benign prostatic hyperplasia with chronic progressive urinary difficulty. The cause is chronic inflammation of the bladder neck.
3. Prostatic sarcoma is more common in middle-aged and young adults. The course of the disease progresses rapidly. Digital rectal examination shows the prostate to be significantly less smooth and softer. MRI is helpful for distinguishing and diagnosing.
