Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. Recently, I haven't been feeling well, mainly experiencing pain and discomfort in the genital area. I've been urinating frequently and urgently. My lower back and abdomen are also in pain. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was determined that I have benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). I would like to consult about the causes of BPH and how it should be treated.Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia is primarily caused by repeated stimulation from chronic prostatitis, leading to its recurrence. It is also important to avoid the habit of holding urine and to drink more water to promote diuresis. This helps in the complete recovery and improvement of prostate-related conditions. Medications that clear heat and promote diuresis can be used, combined with anti-inflammatory drugs for comprehensive treatment. Urinalysis should also be conducted to check for any abnormalities.
