Patient's question:
I have been sick for a while. Recently, I often experience frequent urination, urgency, and blood in urine, which makes me feel very painful. Could you please ask the doctor what are the preferred treatment methods for prostatitis abscess?Doctor's answer:
The difference between a cyst and an abscess is that the former is composed of epithelial tissue, with the cyst fluid produced by the epithelial tissue being sterile, while the latter is composed of purulent fluid and is believed to be dirty. Because cysts contain epithelial tissue, cyst surgery requires complete removal, as leftover epithelial tissue can easily lead to recurrence. In contrast, abscesses can be treated by aspiration and require coordinated antibiotic therapy. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce recurrence, while delayed treatment can affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
