Patient's question:
Male, 55 years old, always feels urinary irritation, feels like there's still urine after urination, and has a weak stream with white discharge. Sometimes, when defecating, it flows as viscous liquid. A few months ago, he visited a hospital, but the doctor didn't recommend a thorough examination, saying it was typical chronic prostatitis. How should chronic prostatitis with frequent urination and white discharge be treated?Doctor's answer:
According to the condition you described, you have chronic prostatitis. The recurrence of the symptoms mentioned is very typical, and a definitive diagnosis can be made without a thorough examination. Avoid drinking beer, spicy foods, especially chili peppers, and getting cold. You must drink plenty of water to maintain sufficient urine output, which helps flush the urethra. Perform cold compresses or sit baths in the perineum daily. For this condition, patients should not only receive necessary treatment but also pay attention to self-care in their daily lives, ensuring a healthy routine, so they can overcome the disease as soon as possible.
