Is it possible to treat the prostate with a urinary catheter?

Urethral intubation for prostate treatment is only a palliative treatment method, and cannot achieve the effect of cure. Urinary catheterization is only to alleviate the difficulty of urination caused by prostate disease, through the urinary catheter can control urination, to reduce the frequency of urination or alleviate the symptoms of urinary incontinence, and then assisted by medication to achieve the purpose of controlling prostate disease. However, this method is not a cure, and symptoms may recur after the removal of the urinary catheter. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed examination and evaluation to take appropriate treatment measures. Generally speaking, inserting a urinary catheter to treat prostate disease is often a relatively serious prostate disease, and if the patient meets the surgical indications, he or she can consider undergoing prostate surgery, which can restore the patency of the urethra, and mainly treats hyperplasia, and achieves the goal of curing hyperplasia of the prostate gland completely. However, if the prostate is inflammation or edema, etc. need to drug anti-infection treatment, wait for the inflammation and edema to subside before removing the catheter, general inflammation or edema, etc. do not need to carry out surgical treatment.
