Hello
Thanks for query.
You have not mentioned your age in your query.
Based on the Ultrasound Scan findings reported I would say that you have Benign Enlargement of Prostate with significant post void residue .
The answers to your queries are as folow
1) You have benign enlargement of prostate which is common after the age of 55 years.
2) It is the ageing process and not the disease and 50-60% of males get it
with advanced ageing .
3) Treatment depends upon the severity of obstructive urinary symptoms like frequency ,urgency,urine flow and nocturnal urinary frequency.
It is decided by the Urologist after doing following basic test like 1)Uroflowmetry .
2) Post Void Residue
3) AUA Symptoms score .
4 ) Diet has no role to play as for as treatment is concerned.
It can be managed either by medicine like Tomsulosin and Dutasteride or and Endoscopic resection of enlarged prostate (TURP).
Consult qualified Urologist for detail investigations and further treatment.
