Patient's question:
A few weeks ago, I caught a cold. After recovering from the cold, I don't know why there started to be a discharge from my urethral opening, and I've also been experiencing lower back pain. In recent days, it has become increasingly severe. My friend said this might be prostatitis. I would like to ask: How is it better to treat prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello. This is to ask the traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to carefully examine whether there is a symptom of kidney deficiency. In daily diet, it is appropriate to prepare medicinal diets that have the effect of warming the kidneys and invigorating yang to ensure the fullness of kidney essence. You can consume more foods that invigorate yang and nourish essence, such as Chinese chives, walnuts, honey, royal jelly, dog meat, and mutton.For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
