Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed that my husband has been feeling off, experiencing frequent urination and urgency. He mentioned that urinating also feels difficult. My husband suspected he might have some kind of male disease and asked me to accompany him to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor diagnosed him with a prostatic cyst and said it's a relatively common urological condition. Then, he provided treatment for my husband. So, what should one do if they develop a prostatic cyst?Doctor's answer:
Prevent urinary tract infections. Do not hold urine; drink more water, more during the day and less at night to avoid increased nighttime urination affecting deep sleep. Daily water intake should be less than two hot water bottles (2500ml) to help dissolve and rinse urine. Pay attention to hygiene in the perineal area to prevent retrograde infection. Post-surgery, every 10 days for 1 to 3 months, a urine test should be conducted to check for bleeding, infection, or other conditions, enabling timely medication.Prostate cyst surgery requires regular Kegel exercises to strengthen the bladder sphincter function and prevent postoperative blood congestion. Patients should avoid sexual activity, lifting heavy objects, or riding bicycles for 3 months post-surgery to prevent prolonged sitting.
