Patient's question:
After that, I still had lower back pain. Today, I had an ultrasound, and the results showed that my kidneys are fine, my urinalysis is normal, and my blood test is also normal. However, the diagnosis indicated that my prostate volume is enlarged to 4.53.03.2. Could my persistent lower back pain be related to the enlarged prostate? Is this considered benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? What degree is it? Is it serious? How should it be treated? Thank you, dear kind doctors. I am quite anxious. I heard that this condition usually affects middle-aged and elderly people. How did I get it? Can it be cured at my stage? Is it still necessary to have a prostate examination? Thank you!Additionally, my urination frequency is not high, and I don’t have difficulty urinating because I drink a lot of water. I visit the restroom about six times a day, once before bed, and no urination during the night. However, after urination, I have a burning sensation in the urethra! I have a history of masturbation, and the frequency varies sometimes.
