Patient's question:
What physical changes occur when suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)? What are the specific manifestations of BPH? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
If you have benign prostatic hyperplasia, it is usually accompanied by symptoms such as frequent urination, difficulty urinating, hematuria, and increased libido. Due to poor excretion, it severely affects sleep and daily life. In the early stages, it typically manifests as frequent urination and nocturia. As it progresses, it can develop into prolonged urination waiting time and a divided urine stream. If it continues to worsen, it can evolve into urinary incontinence and urethritis, and ultimately may lead to kidney failure and uremia. In severe cases, it can be fatal. Therefore, it is recommended that you seek medical examination and treatment early, practice self-care, and maintain a light diet.
