First: uremia. Benign prostatic hyperplasia may lead to kidney damage and even uremia. This is because the hyperplasia of the prostate gland compression urethra, bladder need to force contraction, in order to overcome the resistance of urine out of the body. Over time, the bladder muscles become thick. If the pressure of the bladder can not be relieved for a long time, the residual urine in the bladder will gradually increase, and the bladder muscle will be ischemic and anoxic, and there will be no tension, and the bladder cavity will expand. Finally, the urine in the bladder will pour back to the ureter and pelvis, causing hydronephrosis and uremia in severe cases.

Second: infection. A pool of stagnant water is often seen in a patient's condition, but the residual urine in the bladder is like a stagnant water. Once the bacteria propagate, it will cause * uncontrollable infection. * urinary retention and urinary incontinence. Urinary retention can occur at any stage of the disease, mostly due to climate change, drinking and fatigue, resulting in * sudden congestion and edema of the prostate. Too much residual urine can make the bladder lose its contractility, and the urine remaining in the bladder increases gradually. When the bladder is over inflated, urine will unconsciously overflow from the urethral orifice. This phenomenon of urinary incontinence is called filling urinary incontinence. Such patients must receive emergency treatment.

Third: bladder stones. Bladder stones in the elderly are also associated with BPH. In the case of urinary tract patency, the bladder generally will not grow stones.
