Patient's question:
I am a college student. Besides classes, I usually like to play computer games in my dorm. I sit for a lot of time and lack exercise. Recently, I've noticed that I can't urinate cleanly when I go to the bathroom, and there's also white discharge coming out. After doing some research, I found it might be prostatitis. I'm still so young, so I'm asking: How can prostatitis be treated more effectively?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis, it is recommended to undergo antibiotic anti-inflammatory treatment. Short-term use of α-receptor blockers (e.g., Duzuo Jie) may be considered. Quit smoking and alcohol. Avoid spicy foods. Refrain from sexual intercourse and avoid excessive sexual frequency. Prevent local cold exposure. Additionally, physical therapy can enhance treatment effectiveness. Methods include sitz baths (soak in warm water for about 10 minutes). For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
