What is the difference between benign prostatic hyperplasia and “kidney deficiency”?

  Recently the weather has turned cooler and there has been a sudden increase in the number of elderly male patients coming to the hospital emergency room because of acute urinary retention. When we asked these patients in detail, we learned that they already had different degrees of urinary dysfunction, such as frequent urination, increased frequency of nocturia, and thin and weak urine lines, before they developed acute urinary retention. Why did these elderly male patients not go to the hospital in time when the above symptoms appeared? It turns out that many people think that these are manifestations of “kidney deficiency”, so they casually find some kidney medicine to cope with it, which makes the condition increasingly aggravated and eventually develops to the serious point of acute urinary retention.  In fact, these patients are suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia. The so-called benign prostate hyperplasia is a common disease that occurs with age in older men. It is a good idea to have a good look at the actual website. It’s understandable that this disease appears in older men, so people think it’s a “kidney deficiency”.  This is the first time I’ve ever seen a woman with a kidney. “The lung is the source of water, and the lung is the source of water. The elderly often suffer from chronic bronchitis and emphysema and other lung diseases, when the cold and flu and other lung infections, it is easy to urinate difficulties. As the ancients say, “The spleen has been deficient, the middle qi is not enough, urination for the change, the gas does not transform water and liquid can not.” The elderly have a declining digestive system, and when they do not eat properly, they are prone to indigestion, which can also lead to difficulty in urination due to “water and fluid failure”. The kidney is the master of water and liquid, and the two bowels, and the bladder. If the kidney’s qi is normal, the urine will flow freely, but if not, retention of urine will occur.  The actual fact is that there are a lot of reasons for this, but “kidney deficiency” is just one of them. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on this kind of things.  It is worth noting that since BPH is an age-related disease that develops gradually with age. So the focus of treatment is not to solve the momentary pain, but to receive long-term systematic and standardized treatment so as to slow down the rate of prostate enlargement and prevent various complications, such as acute urinary retention. There are few therapeutic drugs that can achieve this goal, and Finasteride (Borealis) is one of the more desirable ones. Numerous studies have shown that long-term use (1 tablet per day) of finasteride can reduce the risk of acute urinary retention and prostate-related surgery. As for TCM treatment, it is important to identify and use the medication according to the individual differences of each patient.  We advise all elderly male friends that they should go to a professional doctor and have a systematic and comprehensive examination in order to have an understanding of their prostate gland and to be well informed. The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of these.
