Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I am a patient with prostatitis, and I am currently just beginning treatment. In a few days, our company will start health check-ups, but I am worried that during the health check-up, I might be diagnosed with prostatitis. Hello, is there any way to sneak through without being detected?Doctor's answer:
A physical examination can detect symptoms of prostatitis. A physical examination includes a requirement for an ultrasound or a blood and urine test, which can both detect urinary tract inflammation. The causative bacteria types for prostatitis differ, so the treatment approaches also vary. Before identifying the type of causative bacteria, it is not recommended to start treatment blindly. This is because the structure of the prostate is quite special, and most medications struggle to penetrate it.
