Patient's question:
I recently haven't been feeling well physically. Can a visit to the urologist for the prostate distinguish between cancer and hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Prostate examination cannot distinguish between cancer and fibrosis. If there are symptoms such as difficulty urinating or incomplete urination, a color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate should be performed to accurately diagnose the condition and then determine the appropriate treatment method. If there is benign prostatic hyperplasia, treatment with tamsulosin hydrochloride and Foshou capsule is recommended. If there is prostatic swelling, surgical treatment is necessary, and full recovery can be achieved after surgery. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
