Are you resting well at night? Do you still need to get up to go to the bathroom after you go to bed at night? Many young people would say, no, but what about older people? Many older people may answer in the affirmative. So is it normal for older people to get up more often at night? Many older people always think that the increase in the number of nighttime urination is a normal phenomenon of the elderly, this understanding is not correct. Some older people go to the bathroom more than 5 times a night, seriously affecting the normal rest and sleep, and even some older people can not urinate urine to the hospital, a serious delay in the condition. Then how to be considered normal? It is generally believed that the elderly can not get up more than 2 times, more than 2 times is not normal. Excessive nighttime urination is often a prostate problem, mainly prostate hyperplasia. Once you find that the number of times of night urination increases you should go to a timely hospital. Some of these patients can relieve their symptoms by taking oral medication, while some can be treated by minimally invasive surgery, especially by applying holmium laser technology to remove the prostate. This kind of surgery does not require incisions, is less traumatic, basically non-bleeding, and has a quick recovery, and can be discharged from the hospital in 2 days after the surgery. Concern for the health of the elderly, starting from concern for the rest of the elderly, prostate problems, in fact, quite simple!
