Suggest Remedy For Enlarged Prostate And Frequent Need To Urinate

My husband just was released from the hospital where he was treated for a bleeding ulcer. Now he feels bloated and the urgency to pee but only pees about a tablespoon or so. He does have an enlarged prostate. Should I take him back to the ER or wait until the morning and call his dr?

hi
Enlarged prostate can these urinary symptoms. This enlargement is usually benign but prostate cancer can also cause these symptoms. Other causes for his symptoms are urinary tract infection, prostatitis, urinary stone and bladder muscle weakness

Wait for tomorrow and call his doctor. He will need examinaiton of prostate, an ultrasound, a test for screening and early detection of prostate cancer called PSA.

Till then give him Tablets Duodart once daily.

Best of luck.
