Patient's question:
Male, 26 years old, this symptom has persisted for some time. He usually feels lower back pain and a constant sensation of heaviness in the lower abdomen, along with a feeling of incomplete urination. There is also some secretion leaking from the urethral opening. After checking at the hospital, it was said that he has prostatitis. Please ask: can chronic prostatitis be cured?Doctor's answer:
Chronic prostatitis is incurable. The inflammation repeatedly ravages the prostate over a long period, leading to recurrent symptoms. Medication is necessary to alleviate the condition, primarily oral antibiotics, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can also be used. It is important to maintain good lifestyle habits, avoid holding urine, quit alcohol, and refrain from spicy and irritating foods. Prostate massage and heat therapy can also be employed for treatment.
