Patient's question:
What are the hazards of benign prostatic hyperplasia? I would like to understand what the hazards of benign prostatic hyperplasia are. My father has had benign prostatic hyperplasia again, and I don't know what the hazards of this disease are. I hope you can clarify this for me, thank you!Doctor's answer:
I suggest you get a prostate fluid and sexual function test at a tertiary hospital to identify the specific cause. This will help in prescribing medication more effectively. During the treatment, avoid spicy and irritating foods, drink more hot water, and eat more light meals. Also, prevent prolonged sitting and excessive drug use, and engage in outdoor activities when appropriate.Additionally, for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, diet and care during treatment are also crucial. Patients should ensure adequate vitamin intake, prevent stomach issues, and maintain a light diet to avoid unnecessary harm.
