Patient's question:
My husband's father is not feeling well, and my husband is accompanying him for a check-up. The result is a prostatitis abscess. How can a prostatitis abscess be treated better?Doctor's answer:
Hello, general prostatitis abscess can be treated with antibiotics. Antibiotics are selected based on bacterial culture of urine pus, which can short-term control the condition. Alternatively, perineal prostatic puncture and abscess drainage can be performed, with antibiotics injected into the abscess cavity. Incision and drainage may also be used. Physical therapy can also be applied, such as applying a hot water bag to the perineum for heat therapy to promote local abscess inflammation resolution. Daily dietary care should also be noted, with foods like Chinese yam and milk, which can enhance immunity, being consumed more frequently.
