Red Ginseng Tea for Elderly Urinary Retention
For patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia experiencing urinary retention, traditional Chinese medicine recommends trying red ginseng. Prepare 18 grams of aged red ginseng, cut into slices. Each morning after waking, place one slice in a cup, pour boiling water over it, let cool slightly, then drink. Then add another slice, pour half a cup of hot water, keep for midday nap, then add half a cup more, drink immediately after. After finishing, add another slice, repeat the process, and drink before bedtime. Eat the remaining ginseng slices directly in the cup. Long-term use leads to good appetite, sound sleep, faster urination, and a feeling of overall lightness and comfort.<Urinary Retention>
