Complications of prostatic hyperplasia

Prostatic hyperplasia is a common disease for many men. It not only seriously affects physical health, but also easily leads to complications and urinary tract infections. The hyperplasia can easily compress the human bladder, leading to urine retention or hematuria, and can also easily cause hydronephrosis.

What are the complications of prostate hyperplasia?

1. Urinary tract infection Urinary obstruction is a prerequisite for infection, so prostatic hyperplasia can easily cause bladder neck, posterior urethra and cystitis.

2. Acute urinary retention, hematuria, bladder stones, hydronephrosis, renal hypertension and renal insufficiency.

3. Hemorrhoids and rectal prolapse. Difficulty in urination and long-term increase in abdominal pressure can easily lead to complications such as hemorrhoids and rectal prolapse.

4. Others: When prostatic hyperplasia causes dysuria, patients with a history of hypertension are prone to cerebrovascular accidents and heart failure, which should be taken seriously. When prostatic hyperplasia obstruction causes obvious hydrops in the kidneys and ureters, the enlarged kidneys can be felt and there is tenderness. When the bladder is full, a cystic mass can be felt in the middle of the lower abdomen. Sometimes the mass on the waist may be perinephric inflammatory infiltration or perinephric abscess.

Dietary taboos for patients with prostatic hyperplasia

Many men who suffer from prostate hyperplasia will pay close attention to their diet, fearing that their disease cannot be cured, so they only eat nutritious foods. In fact, this is not scientific. Because not every kind of food is suitable for patients with prostate hyperplasia. If eaten improperly, it will also lead to worsening of the disease. I hope patients can pay attention to it. So what foods should patients with prostate hyperplasia not eat in normal times?

Alcohol is a drink that dilates blood vessels. The phenomenon of "blushing after drinking" that people often see is the result of alcohol dilating blood vessels on the face. For internal organs that cannot be seen from the outside, alcohol dilates blood vessels and causes organ congestion, and the prostate is no exception. Because some young people have a long-term habit of drinking or even alcoholism, chronic prostatitis is not easy to cure, and even if it is cured, it is very easy to relapse.

Smoking is harmful to health. Although most people know about the harm of smoking, few know that smoking can also affect the prostate. In fact, alkaloids, tar, nitrosamines, carbon monoxide and other toxic substances in cigarettes can not only directly poison the prostate tissue, but also interfere with the nerve function that controls blood vessels, affect the blood circulation of the prostate, and aggravate the congestion of the prostate.

Spicy foods, such as scallions, raw garlic, chili peppers, pepper and other irritating foods can cause vasodilation and organ congestion. Some patients with chronic prostatitis have the habit of eating spicy food. They can often control themselves when the symptoms of the disease are more serious, but they will relapse when the symptoms are relieved. This is also an important reason for the prolongation and difficulty in curing prostatitis.

Prostatic hyperplasia is a disease that develops very quickly. If the patient does not pay attention to his diet, it will easily lead to rapid division and proliferation of prostate tissue cells. Therefore, I hope that male friends with prostatic hyperplasia can pay attention and control their eating habits.
