Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I have recently been feeling constant lower back pain, weakness in my legs and feet, and difficulty urinating, with recurring urinary urgency and frequency. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis. What are the treatment methods for chronic prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
The main treatment for chronic prostatitis is medication-based, with strict adherence to the therapy. If a careful examination reveals white blood cells, it is best to conduct a bacterial culture before deciding on the medication. If there are no white blood cells, you can opt for traditional Chinese medicine that clears heat and promotes diuresis, such as Bazi Capsules or Qianmiao Shu Capsules. If frequent nighttime urination is caused by the condition, you can also combine it with Tamsulosin Hydrochloride Sustained-Release Tablets. There are several treatment methods for prostatitis, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach will differ accordingly. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to ensure the treatment is tailored to their specific symptoms.
