Patient's question:
I often have trouble sleeping at night, going to the bathroom multiple times every night, three to four times or more. I've gotten used to it and it hasn't been a big deal. But two days ago, when I noticed blood in my urine, I told my wife. She said we should go to the hospital for a thorough check-up. They said it's benign prostatic hyperplasia.Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia should pay attention to self-care, enhance physical exercise, prevent colds at work, actively treat infections in other parts of the body, and reduce the body's disease resistance. Maintain a light diet, avoid alcohol and spicy, irritating foods to prevent prostate congestion; restrain sexual activity, prohibit interrupted intercourse during surgery, which can alleviate prostate congestion. Engage in sufficient activity, avoid prolonged horseback riding, cycling, and long sitting. Office workers should stand up and move around every 12 hours to reduce prostate congestion. Take a hot bath before bed every day, and regularly perform prostate massage to promote blood circulation and facilitate the discharge of inflammatory secretions. Comprehensive prevention of colds can reduce urethral pressure, leading to reflux.
