Patient's question:
I got married last year, and recently I've been feeling weak in my sexual performance. Also, when I go to the bathroom, I've noticed that my urine is cloudy, and there's a bit of pain at the urethral opening. Could you please tell me: How much does it cost to treat prostatitis, and is it expensive?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on your description and symptoms, a comprehensive analysis suggests that you have chronic prostatitis caused by incomplete resolution of acute prostatitis. Chronic prostatitis (caused by fungal or mixed bacterial infection) has led to poor penile blood supply and sensitive glans.First, chronic prostatitis should be treated, and spicy or irritating foods should be avoided in daily life. Daily hot Sitz baths or microwave heat therapy can be effective. Treating chronic prostatitis is quite challenging, and a typical course of treatment lasts one month, requiring 3-4 courses in total.
First, bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests should be conducted, using sensitive medications that are effective and administered according to the prescribed course. It is recommended to visit a private, top-tier Grade III-A traditional Chinese medicine hospital for consultation. After the TCM practitioner takes your pulse, they can prescribe herbal decoctions for nourishing and treating the condition (promoting blood circulation, resolving blood stasis, clearing heat, detoxifying, and promoting diuresis).
