Patient's question:
My father is 58 years old this year and has had prostate problems for several years. He didn't pay much attention to it before, and I've bought medicine for him as well. However, he drinks a lot of beer and smokes heavily. Recently, he's been feeling very severe symptoms, needing to go to the bathroom every hour. Sometimes, when he strains to urinate, he can also pass stool, along with the pain. Today, he went to the hospital and was told that surgery is required, with a cost of 20,000 yuan. What is the best treatment option for someone in his condition? He has already stopped drinking beer and smoking for these past few days!!Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to seek treatment in a formal specialized hospital. Currently, the inflammation persists, which should be considered as a chronic condition and fibrosis. Proper and thorough examination, diagnosis, and treatment are necessary. For patients, if the condition of the prostate is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication should be administered. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of the prostate condition. Additionally, patients should maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition. I hope the answers to these questions can assist everyone. Thank you.
