Patient's question:
Chronic prostatitis, I've been treated for a year, but it hasn't improved yet. Please ask: What should be noted in the treatment of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Chronic prostatitis (caused by molds and miscellaneous bacteria). This leads to poor blood supply to the penis and sensitive glans. First, chronic prostatitis should be treated, and spicy and irritating foods should be avoided. Daily hot sitz baths or microwave heat therapy can be effective. First, bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests should be conducted, using sensitive medications, and treatment should be persistent and follow a prescribed course. Medications include ciprofloxacin, doxycycline, etc. It is best to visit a private, top-tier Grade III TCM hospital and consult a TCM doctor for pulse diagnosis, herbal decoction, and treatment (promoting blood circulation, resolving blood stasis, clearing heat, detoxifying, and promoting diuresis). Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's medication plan is essential during treatment. Additionally, during the treatment period, it is recommended to adopt a healthy lifestyle and proper diet, hoping that male patients can recover quickly!
