Patient's question:
Lately, these past few days, I've always felt uncomfortable when using the restroom, a bit painful. Usually, I feel a burning sensation at the urethral opening. Basically, I've been restless. I'm only 39 years old this year, could it be that I have prostatitis? If it really is, please ask: Is granulomatous prostatitis treatable?Doctor's answer:
The treatment principle of traditional Chinese medicine for diuretic and anti-inflammatory therapy is syndrome differentiation and treatment, adjusting according to the patient's clinical diagnostic symptoms. Based on our understanding, the treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia, hardness, and nodules involves expelling toxins, killing bacteria, promoting blood circulation, resolving blood stasis, softening hardness, dispersing nodules, diuretic and promoting urination. After a few days of treatment, symptoms will gradually decrease. Symptoms will be basically completely eliminated after 3-5 months of treatment. Occasional mild symptoms do not require focused treatment, as they will naturally and completely disappear. The condition will be fully cured. Prostatitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to promptly seek medical treatment at professional and regular hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, proper diet and abstinence from sexual activity should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
