Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing symptoms of frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination. I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but now I've noticed that it seems like there's a swelling, possibly a prostatitis abscess. How should I treat a prostatitis abscess?Doctor's answer:
For larger abscesses, surgical treatment can be effective. Methods such as incision and drainage, needle aspiration, and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) are also viable options, along with antibiotic conservative treatment. It is recommended that you seek effective treatment measures at a formal hospital's urology department or department of andrology. Treatment should be tailored to the severity of the condition. Prostate conditions tend to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to visit a professional and formal hospital for diagnosis and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is advisable to abstain from sexual activity and maintain a positive mood. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
