Patient's question:
My grandfather is getting older now, and his health is getting worse. Last year, he was thoroughly examined in the hospital and diagnosed with prostate disease. He often experiences symptoms of urination difficulties, and despite taking many medications, it hasn't improved. I saw a product called Cordyceps Chicken Essence, and I wonder what the elderly with prostate disease would think about taking it orally.Doctor's answer:
First, this medication has no therapeutic effect on the prostate. Therefore, it is recommended not to take this medication casually, as your grandfather is quite elderly and is likely to have some degree of prostate-related issues. It is advised to have a thorough prostate ultrasound examination at the hospital to confirm the specific condition of prostate enlargement. If there is frequent difficulty urinating, it may be necessary to consider prostate surgery.
