Patient's question:
The day before yesterday, I went for a health check-up. The ultrasound examination found that it was benign prostatic hyperplasia. How should it be treated? What preventive measures should be taken? What are the consequences? I don't feel anything myself.Doctor's answer:
How severe is the enlargement? It may still be due to previous prostatitis. After a thorough examination and diagnosis, active treatment of the prostate area is recommended. The location of the prostate is quite special. It is advised that you opt for physical therapy, which is currently the best treatment method. Once diagnosed, active treatment is crucial as it may affect future urination. It may also lead to discomfort in sexual function. For severe cases of the prostate, it is recommended to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid changing medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect on the treatment outcome.
