Patient's question:
Previously, it was prostatitis, and now I have become benign prostatic hyperplasia. What causes benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Prostate enlargement becomes more common with age, and it is closely related to chronic inflammation. It can lead to clinical symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, and increased nighttime urination. Long-term dilation is one of the causes of the formation of hernias and hemorrhoids, and it may even result in damage to kidney function. It is recommended to consult a urologist for a follow-up examination, undergo an MRI to determine the specific extent, and receive appropriate treatment advice from the doctor.
