Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Need for Urgent surgery is mandatory if you have any of the following
1) raised creatinine due to the upper tract deterioration
2) recurrent UTI
3) Stone disease
Looking at your age the above Uroflowmetry parameters cannot be attributed to just outlet obstruction
So as per my opinion urgent surgery is not needed
But considering uroflow report it is definitely needed considering raised PVR
Next Steps
Till then you can try using Silodosin D (8/0.5 mg) if you are not using it already
Health Tips
can repeat USG once again after 3-4 months and look for PVR and upper tracts again
