Recently, if anyone has gone to the bathroom and felt that urinating is not the same as before, has difficulty urinating, dribbling urine, takes quite a long time to finish urinating, and also has to go to the bathroom frequently, these symptoms are warning signs of an enlarged prostate. It can be found in men aged 45 and up, but those aged 70 are most likely to have it. There are also many other symptoms that you can observe yourself for, which will be explained in the next topic. However, prostate disease can be treated with various methods. Examination and treatment with a specialist will be the most effective.

 

Urgent check: warning signs of enlarged prostate

 

Symptoms of enlarged prostate are as follows:

๐ Difficulty urinating, sometimes accompanied by pain, and taking a long time to finish.

๐ Frequent urination. Normally, people urinate about 5-7 times a day. However, if it is more than that or if you have to urinate in the middle of the night, it may be a warning sign of the disease as well.

๐ Can’t hold urine. When I was young, I could hold it in for hours no matter how much I needed to urinate. But now, whenever I feel the urge, I can’t hold it in immediately. Or some people have difficulty urinating, and it takes a while.

๐ Urinary obstruction is a common symptom because urination is interrupted at intervals and urine drips when it is almost finished.

๐​ Acute urinary incontinence, a symptom of a person who is unable to urinate as before

๐ Severe urination, lower abdominal pain, and the need to use the bathroom immediately

 

How is enlarged prostate treated?

 

There are four methods of treating enlarged prostate:

๐ Drug treatment is the use of drugs to relax the contractions of the prostate muscles. It is an alpha-blocker to help inhibit the production of male hormones. Doctors will mainly treat the symptoms.

๐ Surgery is a surgical procedure to remove the prostate gland using a cystoscope. It is divided into 2 methods: TUPR (Transurethral Resection of the Prostate) and TURPV (Transurethral Vaporized - Resection of the Prostate).

๐ Green Light PVP Laser Surgery (PVP : Photo - Selective Vaporization of Prostate) uses the machine

๐ Thulium Laser Vaporesection of the Prostate is as effective as PVP but allows for a biopsy to be performed.

 

Postoperative care

 

Here are some basic self-care tips after surgery:

๐ Avoid drinking water before bedtime.

๐ Drink at least 7-8 glasses of water per day.

๐ Avoid beverages such as tea, coffee and alcohol.

๐ You should not hold your urine or strain when you feel the pain.

๐​ If you do not completely urinate, you should urinate again to avoid any remaining urine.

๐ If you experience any unusual symptoms, you should see a doctor for a preliminary diagnosis.

 

If you do not have a stream of urine and cannot hold it in, you should consult a specialist for diagnosis.

 

Anyone who has checked the initial symptoms and found that there is no urination or frequent urination in the middle of the night should consult a specialist doctor to diagnose the initial symptoms immediately. Because if left for a long time, it will be bad for health and may cause the symptoms of the disease to become more severe. Even though it is a popular disease, many men overlook it because they think it may not be anything serious. But in fact, enlarged prostate should be treated quickly to reduce the severity of the disease. Because the initial symptoms will be tormenting to daily life as well.
