Patient's question:
Since the beginning of the year, I've been feeling like I have a lot of nighttime urination, and also frequent urination during the day. When I urinate, there's a stinging sensation, and the amount of urine is not much. I also always feel like I haven't emptied my bladder completely. My lower back, waist, and abdomen also hurt badly. I suspect it might be prostatitis. Please ask: What are the treatments for prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, for chronic prostatitis, it is recommended to drink more hot water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and maintain a light diet. Avoid spicy and irritating foods, beer, and frequent sexual activity to prevent interference with complete recovery. It is generally advised to undergo a prostate ultrasound and a routine semen analysis to identify the cause and provide symptomatic treatment. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life, paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
