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 fully emptied my bladder. My lower back, waist, and abdomen are also in severe pain. I suspect it might be prostatitis. Please ask: What are the good treatments for prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis can be treated and cured, but it is not impossible for the condition to recur after recovery. In daily life, it is necessary to control the frequency of sexual activity, pay attention to dietary structure, and prevent excessive congestion of the prostate. Generally, antibiotics can be prescribed, such as levofloxacin, often in combination with Qian Shu Le capsule, etc. Prostatitis is not infectious, but during the untreated phase, sexual activity should be protected with a condom to avoid easily causing vaginal inflammation in women. Drinking less beer, avoiding prolonged sitting, performing appropriate Kegels exercises, and maintaining warm sitz baths can all be helpful. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to seek professional and reputable medical treatment immediately and consider treatment based on thorough examination results.
