Patient's question:
Suddenly this situation appeared, I'm very worried about his condition. What kind of medicine should be taken for granulomatous prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Treatment includes medications, local physical therapy, and surgery, among others. Depending on the underlying cause, drugs such as antibiotics, antihistamines, antitubercular agents, corticosteroids, and immunosuppressants may be used. For cases with local or systemic infectious symptoms and granulomatous prostatitis secondary to specific infections, anti-infective treatment is required, with a typical course lasting 2 to 4 weeks. For patients with asthma or allergies, additional antihistamine and symptomatic treatment should be combined. Surgery is generally not necessary unless there is severe urinary obstruction. The majority of granulomatous prostatitis cases can resolve spontaneously without specific treatment, so if symptoms are mild or absent, no treatment is needed, and only close follow-up is required.
