subject: Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Treatment And Prevention [print this page]


"Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia" treatment can be very hard to find if early treatment is not implemented. BPH is the formation of a noncancerous or benign tissue in the prostate gland. It is commonly known as prostate enlargement and is very common among males who are aged 45 and above. How will you know if you have "benign prostatic hyperplasia" symptoms? And how can you with this problem?

Prostate problems became very widespread in older males. Though it is just normal to have this and it is also non-cancerous, many men neglect taking early treatments for this. But when symptoms arrived, and they are being bothered especially in their daily activities, they may regret that they have not sought an early management.

When this problem is precipitated by certain factors, it may progress into more severe complications like Prostate Cancer. Risk factors that could trigger "benign prostatic hyperplasia" symptoms are obesity, increased salt in the diet, alcohol abuse and cigarette smoking, lack of exercise and family history of the disease itself. If these factors are present in a normal man, he may perceive that he may have prostate problems when he gets older.

"Benign prostatic hyperplasia" treatment includes medicines, natural remedies, natural alternatives, home remedies and surgery. A surgery is required if the case becomes so severe. The surgery for BPH is called "Transurethral Resection of the Prostate" or TURP.

Medicines like NSAIDs and corticosteroids are prescribed for the inflammation. Analgesics are also prescribed to relieve the pain. Soaking in a warm bath for fifteen minutes is an example of a home remedy.

These remedies are given to shrink the prostate gland as well as relieve the main symptoms of BPH. Main symptoms are dribbling and thinning of the urine stream, pain and difficulty voiding, frequent voiding and nocturia (or frequent voiding at night). Some men are required for long term-catheterization just to ease the voiding process.

"Benign prostatic hyperplasia" symptoms can be very troublesome especially if they start to get so severe and start affecting your urinary tract. It may progress into urinary tract infection and sometimes, kidney damage if not treated early. "Benign prostatic hyperplasia" treatment is just around waiting for you to seek help.
