Patient's question:
A few weeks ago, I caught a cold. After recovering from the cold, I don't know why there started to be a discharge from my urethra, and I've also been experiencing lower back pain. In recent days, it has become increasingly severe. My friend said this might be prostatitis. I would like to ask: How should prostatitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Based on the current situation and symptoms you described, the main cause of the recurrence of the aforementioned issues is still due to prostatitis. It is recommended to undergo further prostate ultrasound examination for effective improvement of the current condition and symptoms. Pay attention to personal hygiene, change underwear frequently, and cooperate with anti-inflammatory medication. Prostatitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals promptly, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, maintain a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
