Patient's question:
I've been having trouble holding my urine recently. Even after drinking a little water, I feel the urge to urinate. If I don't go quickly, I might experience a bit of leakage again. Then, I always wonder if I might have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? If I really do have this condition, what are the treatments for BPH?Doctor's answer:
Prostate volume enlargement is very common in clinical diagnosis, and there is no need for excessive careful examination. Theoretically, if there is an urge to urinate that cannot be held back, similar to the sensation of needing to urinate, it can be treated by clearing the prostate. Additionally, through the use of antibacterial medications or blood-activating treatments, the prostate enlargement can be stabilized. Finally, surgical treatment can also be used to address the enlarged prostate gland.
