Patient's question:
One of my friends has been experiencing difficulty urinating recently, with some pain during urination and frequent urinary tract infections. Since they live in a rural area and have limited knowledge in this regard, they don't know if it's due to benign prostatic hyperplasia and are unsure how to treat it.Doctor's answer:
Mainly manifested as: difficulty urinating, straining during urination, shortened urination time, intermittent urination, reduced urinary range, thinning urine flow, incomplete dripping at the end of urination, and even recurrent urinary retention. Someone once said, "As people age, they wet their shoes with urine," which truly reflects the reality of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). In addition, patients who experience difficulty and straining during urination may need to bear down to increase abdominal pressure to assist with urination. Over time, this can lead to the formation of an inguinal hernia, commonly known as "small intestine" among the general public. Therefore, patients with BPH should seek medical attention promptly. In addition to immediate treatment, patients should pay attention to maintaining deep sleep throughout their lives. Sufficient deep sleep is the key to helping you recover from this condition as quickly as possible. It is hoped that the above information will assist you.
