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 urethra, and I've also been experiencing lower back pain. In recent days, it has become even worse. My friend said this might be prostatitis. Please ask: How should prostatitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, if you are sick, it is recommended to seek medical attention at a formal hospital in your country. It is advised to pay close attention and carefully observe, then visit a large hospital with secondary or higher level accreditation for thorough examination and treatment. Formal hospitals generally have reasonable fees, so it is best to avoid private clinics and individual hospitals to prevent unnecessary expenses. For patients with prostate issues, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek treatment promptly and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
