- Prostatic fluid: Sphingolipids +2, thin consistency
- No prostate cells observed
- Microscopic examination: 5-10 white blood cells/HPF
- No squamous epithelial cells observed
- No sperm observed
Desired Help:
I cannot stop working, as I need to support my family. Is there any medication that can help? Currently, my lower abdomen occasionally hurts.
Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to use antibiotics and traditional Chinese medicine for simultaneous treatment. Short-term oral α-blockers (e.g., Duzuo Jie) can be used.Medical advice: Quit smoking and drinking alcohol. Avoid spicy foods. Refrain from masturbation and excessive sexual activity. Prevent local cold exposure.
Simultaneously, physical therapy can enhance treatment effectiveness. The method involves sitting in a warm bath for about 10 minutes.
In addition to timely treatment for the prostate, patients need to pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy foods. At the same time, patients should choose a reputable hospital for diagnosis to achieve better treatment outcomes.
