Patient's question:
I recently experienced frequent urination and difficulty urinating. At first, I thought I had a urinary tract infection, but after a thorough examination at the hospital, I found out that I actually have prostatitis. Now, I'm particularly curious about how granulomatous prostatitis can be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, you don't need to worry, it can be cured. Granulomatous prostatitis is generally manifested as distending pain and discomfort in the lumbosacral region, bladder area, groin, and perineum. Treatment includes medication, local physical therapy, and surgery, using antibiotics, antihistamines, antitubercular drugs, steroid hormones, and immunosuppressants according to different causes. There may be local or systemic infectious symptoms and those secondary to specific infections. Granulomatous prostatitis requires anti-infection treatment, with a course typically lasting 2 to 4 weeks. For those with asthma or allergies, antihistamines and symptomatic treatment are also needed. Unless there is severe urinary tract obstruction, surgery is generally not required. The vast majority of granulomatous prostatitis can resolve spontaneously without special treatment.
