Patient's question:
I always have a feeling of urinary retention in my lower abdomen. I experience urinary urgency and incomplete urination. Five months ago, I developed prostatitis and took some anti-inflammatory and tonifying herbs for kidney health. Recently, I feel some relief because I previously had occasional lower abdominal pain. Now, I feel my lower abdomen is distended, and the area around my hip feels warm when touched. Is it possible that it has developed into another condition? I went to the hospital for a urine test and ultrasound. The doctor didn't say anything specific and just prescribed some urinary tract clearing medicine.Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis, first of all, drink more water, do a routine examination of prostatic fluid, culture and drug sensitivity test of prostatic fluid, identify what bacteria are present, and then choose the appropriate medication. For those with inflammation, based on the drug sensitivity results, determine the appropriate antibiotic.Guidance and suggestions: In addition, it is also necessary to enhance α-adrenergic blockers. This is an effective medication for relieving urinary symptoms and can be taken with appropriate traditional Chinese medicine.
Prostatitis should be avoided by sitting for long periods or staying up late, and regular sexual activity can effectively prevent it.
, during the treatment of prostatitis, in addition to timely treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important.
