B shows benign prostatic hyperplasia, what should I do?

Patient's question:

Prostate test report shows white blood cells: 4-36, does this mean prostatitis. Ultrasound shows prostate hyperplasia.

Doctor's answer:

1. It is important to understand the effects of observation and waiting, the potential progression of the disease, and relevant knowledge about prostate cancer;
2. Appropriately limiting fluid intake can alleviate urinary frequency symptoms, but daily fluid intake should not be less than 1500ml;
3. Alcohol and caffeine have diuretic and stimulating effects, which can cause increased urine output, urinary frequency, and urinary urgency. Therefore, alcohol and caffeine-containing beverages should be consumed in moderation;
4. Mental relaxation training, shifting attention away from the urge to urinate, bladder training, and encouraging patients to hold urine appropriately to increase bladder capacity and urination interval time.
