Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I don't know what's going on recently. I always feel like I can't finish urinating, especially at night. The frequency of urination is even higher. It's gotten to the point where I don't dare to drink water, but it's still not working. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was benign prostatic hyperplasia.Doctor's answer:
Symptoms and manifestations of benign prostatic hyperplasia:① Urinary symptoms: Frequent urination, urinary urgency, dysuria, urethral burning, incomplete urination with dribbling, sometimes difficulty urinating, and nocturia.
② Urethral discharge: White secretions may drip from the urethral opening at the end of urination or during defecation.
③ Pain symptoms: Due to chronic inflammatory stimulation, severe tenderness and a sense of fullness may occur in the perineum, anus, and scrotum, often radiating to the suprapubic region, lumbosacral area, bilateral inguinal regions, perineum, and lower limb pain. Symptoms are generally more pronounced in the morning.
④ Changes in physiological function: Premature ejaculation, nocturnal emissions, decreased libido, or impotence may occur. Some patients experience painful ejaculation and hematospermia. In some cases of infertility, chronic prostatitis is a significant cause.
⑤ Neurological weakness: Insomnia, frequent dreams, fatigue, dizziness, lack of confidence, low mood, and memory impairment.
Note: Please seek medical examination and treatment at a formal hospital.
