Patient's question:
I had a cold a while ago, so I thought the fever and chills were just due to the cold. But the fever didn't go down, and when I went to the hospital, the doctor said I had orchitis. I don't know how I got this disease in the first place. Please ask: How is prostatitis treated? What medication is good for it?Doctor's answer:
You should go to a regular hospital's urology department to have a routine test for prostatic fluid to confirm whether there is significant prostatitis. If the inflammation is significant, it can be inferred that your current symptoms are caused by inflammation. In that case, treating the prostatitis should be sufficient. Small cysts can be temporarily left alone, but you should have regular follow-up ultrasound examinations (every 3-6 months) to monitor their condition. If the inflammation is not significant or the anti-inflammatory treatment is not effective, then consider that the frequent urination symptoms are indeed caused by the cysts. In that case, cyst-targeted treatments can be used. Currently, there are many treatment methods for this. Generally, surgical treatment is used for larger cysts or symptomatic small cysts. Prostatitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication.
