Patient's question:
My father has benign prostatic hyperplasia, and the medication prescribed by the hospital is quite expensive. His symptoms have improved somewhat now. He hopes the doctor can collect a medication that is more affordable and of good quality, which he can take long-term.Doctor's answer:
Based on the description of your situation, it appears that after a thorough examination and diagnosis, the symptoms are caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Medication recommendations include taking (Prostatic Granules) for symptomatic relief. However, medication can only alleviate symptoms, which may gradually worsen over time. It is advised to consider undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in the future. BPH is a condition prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication management. It is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital for diagnosis. Treatment decisions should be based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity are recommended.
