With the arrival of the aging society, the incidence of prostate hyperplasia is rising year by year. Many elderly patients do not pay enough attention to the disease, delaying treatment again and again, and almost always have to seek standardized treatment only after the emergence of very serious symptoms or complications. As a result of missing the best time for treatment, elderly patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and diabetes can only be treated conservatively, which brings mental and life burdens to the patients and their families. Middle-aged and elderly people must be early detection of the problem, early treatment. Symptoms of prostate hyperplasia can’t be “waited for” There are many symptoms in the early stage of prostate hyperplasia, which are all related to “urine”, manifesting as frequent urination, especially increased urination at night; urgency of urination, which means that you have to urinate before going to the toilet; weakness of urination, poor urination, and thinning of the urine stream, etc. The symptoms alone are not enough to determine the severity of the disease. Symptoms alone are not the whole basis for judging the severity of the disease, physical examination and imaging tests are also very critical. The most commonly used test is ultrasound. It can understand the size and shape of the prostate, and can also show whether there are any other lesions in the kidneys or bladder. Some people undergo tests that reveal a large, enlarged prostate without any symptoms, a condition that does not necessarily require treatment. ultrasound measurement of residual urine is convenient and reliable. A large amount of residual urine indicates a serious condition. Uroflowmetry is a test that has been introduced in recent years. A normal person’s maximum urine flow rate is usually no less than 20 milliliters per second. In the elderly, more than 15 milliliters per second can be regarded as normal, such as less than 10 milliliters per second indicates that the condition is serious. Therefore, the elderly in their daily lives should not only pay attention to their own urinary situation, but also regular urological specialties in the physical examination. Treatment can not rely solely on drugs Many elderly patients with prostate hyperplasia have used a variety of drugs, but still not cured, the condition gradually aggravated, and even hernia, urinary retention, hydronephrosis, uremia and other complications. Therefore, the treatment cannot mechanically rely on drugs alone, but requires comprehensive treatment, including minimally invasive surgery, daily life dietary modifications, etc., in order to improve the symptoms. Minimally invasive prostatectomy, which has been developing rapidly in recent years, is a very mature surgical technique, and has quickly become the “gold standard” for prostate enlargement treatment worldwide because of its features such as less injury, less intraoperative blood loss, less postoperative pain, and faster recovery. Many elderly patients, hypertensive and diabetic patients are suitable for this surgery. Patients can have normal activities and eat on the second day after the operation, and can be discharged from the hospital three days after the operation, with minimal medication, no trauma on the surface of the body, and no need for suture removal, which has become the best choice for the treatment of prostate hyperplasia. In daily life, the elderly pay attention not to hold urine, as soon as there is a desire to urinate should be immediately urinated. It is not advisable to sit for a long time and ride a bicycle for a long time, so as to avoid poor blood flow in the prostate department. Dietary attention to eat less sweet, sour, spicy food, more vegetables, soy products and coarse grains, moderate consumption of eggs, beef, seeds such as walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and so on. Prohibit alcohol, drink more green tea.
