Question

My father has been dealing with frequent urination and a burning sensation when he pees. We saw a doctor who recommended tests like Haemogram, CUE, PSA, HBA1C, and an ultrasound scan of the pelvis and abdomen. Everything looked fine except the PVR was 500ml. Now they've done a cystoscopy and are suggesting TURP surgery. Is this the right time to go for surgery, or should we wait and try more medications? Can this be managed with just medicines?
