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. Please ask: How should I take care of a patient with prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the prostate calcification and reduction may be symptoms caused by local chronic inflammation. It is recommended to pay close attention and observe carefully. After using medication for a period of time, it is suggested to have a follow-up examination at the hospital. Based on the results of the follow-up, symptomatic treatment should be adopted. Prostate can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during the treatment, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and also maintain a light diet, avoiding spicy foods, smoking, and drinking beer. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
