Patient's question:
Jumping and running caused hematuria. After examination, it was found to be benign prostatic hyperplasia. Is surgery necessary?Doctor's answer:
Prostate hyperplasia can also cause hematuria. However, hematuria caused by prostate hyperplasia is not common. The prostate becomes more vascularized after hyperplasia. The enlarged prostate compresses the bladder and urethra, and is constantly subjected to impact during urination, as well as restriction from urethral and pelvic muscles. These factors can lead to the rupture of blood vessels within the prostate, resulting in hematuria. For someone with severe prostate hyperplasia like you, surgical treatment is recommended.
