Patient's question:
Last year, I wasn't feeling well and went for a check-up, where I was diagnosed with prostatitis. Over the past few years, it has been recurring on and off, and it hasn't fully resolved. My wife hasn't been able to get pregnant either. I'm currently feeling very distressed. Could you please advise on how to treat prostatitis to recover quickly?Doctor's answer:
Usually, prostatitis is a common disease in urology, ranking second among male patients under the age of 50 in urology. Recommendation: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can stabilize symptoms, typically administered orally or as suppositories, while traditional Chinese medicine using anti-inflammatory, heat-clearing, detoxifying, and softening herbs has also shown certain effectiveness. Allopurinol can reduce uric acid levels in the body and prostatic fluid, theoretically acting as a free radical scavenger to thoroughly eliminate free radical components, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain. Prostatitis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and relapse is prone after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor's treatment, proper medication use, avoiding prolonged sitting or riding, and paying attention to personal hygiene are essential. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
