What does a slightly enlarged prostate mean?

A slightly larger prostate may indicate that the patient has chronic prostatitis, which needs to be taken seriously and actively treated.

Due to the repeated stimulation of inflammation, the prostate volume will slightly enlarge and cause edema and congestion. If there are no obvious symptoms of discomfort, special treatment is generally not required. You need to change your living habits and avoid sitting for long periods of time, drinking alcohol, staying up late, or overexertion, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. These habits will aggravate the symptoms of prostatitis.

If the patient has uncomfortable symptoms such as dull pain in the pelvic area, frequent urination, urgency, and difficulty in urination, he needs to go to a regular hospital for a prostate B-ultrasound examination to find out the cause in time, and take corresponding treatment measures under the guidance of a doctor.
