Patient's question:
My father is currently 83 years old. He had a prostate hyperplasia removal surgery 10 years ago. Since March of this year, he has been experiencing frequent urination, and the number of times he urinates daily has increased again. He has been to the hospital for multiple urethral dilation procedures, but the results have not been very effective. Hello doctor, what is going on? How should it be treated? Is surgery necessary? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, there may be a possibility of not ruling out a urinary tract infection. It is recommended to conduct a thorough examination. For patients with severe benign prostatic hyperplasia, it is advised to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent worsening the condition. It is best to maintain a diet that is as diverse and varied as possible. Eat more high-quality protein foods, vegetables, and fruits. Avoid alcohol, coffee, and smoking. Do not expose yourself to toxic substances and radiation sources. Avoid spicy foods. The above suggestions are for reference only. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
