Symptoms and Treatment of Enlarged Prostate

Enlarged prostate refers to prostate hyperplasia, which causes a series of clinical symptoms as the disease progresses and requires standardized treatment. The main symptoms include frequent urination, urinary urgency, waiting for urine and urine residue, etc. The main treatment options include medication, surgery and daily care. The main symptoms include: 1. Effort to urinate: it is a common and typical clinical symptom, which is caused by the obstruction of the urinary tract due to the increase in the size of the prostate gland. 2. Frequent urination: long-term urinary tract obstruction affects the amount of urine stored in the bladder, resulting in frequent urination. 3. Urinary urgency: once the urine filling, for the bladder stimulation is more obvious, will cause urinary urgency performance. 4. Urinary waiting: because the prostate gland compression affects the urine discharge as well as the function of the bladder forced urinary muscle, resulting in a longer waiting time for urination. 4. Urine residual: because the urinary tract compression affects the complete discharge of urine, it will lead to the production of residual urine. The main treatment methods: 1. Drug treatment: commonly used drugs are 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (finasteride tablets, etc.), which can inhibit the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone with higher activity, reduce the stimulation of hormones on prostate cells and relieve symptoms. 2. Surgery: Transurethral resection of the prostate is commonly used, which can directly relieve urinary tract compression and reduce symptoms through surgery. 3. Daily care: pay attention to quit smoking and drinking, do not eat spicy and stimulating food, avoid sitting for a long time, you can have a proper bath. Patients with prostate hyperplasia need to seek timely medical observation, standardized treatment under the guidance of clinicians, and avoid unauthorized use of drugs.
