88-year-old with very severe prostate issues, what treatment options are available?

Patient's question:

Over two years, inflammation, swelling

Doctor's answer:

Prostate hyperplasia is an irreversible pathological manifestation and is incurable, gradually enlarging with age.
Guidelines:
If there are severe urinary difficulties, frequent urinary retention, or urinary tract infections, it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment such as prostatectomy. As everyone knows, prostatitis can cause significant harm to men, so it is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues—avoiding irritating foods and maintaining a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
