Patient's question:
Male, 50 years old. At first, it was just lower back pain, then gradually, some pain in the lower abdomen and perineum area. Recently, I also noticed that I have developed urine splitting, and urination doesn't seem as smooth as before. Question: How is prostatitis treated?Doctor's answer:
It is commonly believed that prostatitis is caused by severe pain in some pelvic muscle tissues, which controls the surrounding nerve endings and stimulates inflammatory substances, leading to local tensional or neuralgia pain. Therefore, conventional medications and surgical treatments often have no effect on prostatitis. For individuals with prostatitis, it is important to avoid all factors that may lead to prostatic congestion in daily life, such as avoiding prolonged sitting, not taking drugs, and consuming excessive spicy foods. Pay attention to local warmth prevention, maintain regular sexual activity, and try to avoid sitting on pillows or other hard supporting objects to prevent increased pressure on the coccyx. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect overall health.
