85-year-old benign prostatic hyperplasia

Patient's question:

16 days after surgery, there has been blood in the urine. Today, there is some pain and the frequency of urination has increased.

Doctor's answer:

Do not stop or reduce medication on your own, and it is necessary to conduct regular follow-up checks to adjust the treatment plan in a timely manner based on your condition. Additionally, in terms of daily life, avoid stimulating foods, smoking, and alcohol consumption; pay attention to keeping warm; avoid strenuous activities, prolonged sitting, and long-distance bicycle riding; urinate promptly and do not hold back urine. Therefore, self-care is very important. If you do a good job in self-care, it can not only consolidate the therapeutic effect but also prevent the worsening of the condition and the occurrence of acute urinary retention.
