Patient's question:
I have had benign prostatic hyperplasia for over a year and haven't taken good care of it. This year, I took medicine for three months, and now it has improved a lot. Do you need to take it seriously?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia and prostatitis are common issues among middle-aged men today. In fact, the treatment for this condition primarily involves intravenous fluids to reduce inflammation, followed by later stages where traditional Chinese medicine or herbal preparations are mainly used for (regulating and nourishing the body). Generally speaking, complete self-healing is very difficult. As long as there are no discomforts, regular follow-up checks are sufficient. For patients with prostate hyperplasia, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely and appropriate treatment, and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
