Patient's question:
No girlfriend, and no bad sexual habits, but I recently found that there is always white stuff coming out of my urethral opening, and it feels itchy and painful when I urinate. I think it might be prostatitis. Could you please tell me: What is the best way to treat prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostate diseases should be treated by having a prostatic fluid culture and drug sensitivity test done in a regular hospital to determine the sensitive drugs and prescribe symptomatic treatment. Strengthen exercise, frequently practice kegel exercises, tighten the buttocks, tense the perineal muscles, stabilize the blood circulation in the perineum, and force the inflammation to subside. Quit smoking and drinking, eat less spicy and irritating foods, drink more water, and avoid overexertion and prolonged sitting. Restrict sexual activity. Herbal medicines such as Liuwei Dihuang Wan and Buzhong Yiqi Wan can be taken for regulation. Sitz baths and perineal hot compresses can also be applied at home. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to immediately seek treatment in a professional and regular hospital and consider treatment based on examination results. Pay attention to a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and wish all patients a speedy recovery.
