Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for many years, and we have never used any form of contraception, but we have never been able to get pregnant. After going to the hospital for a check-up, we found out that I have chronic prostatitis. It has been a year since the diagnosis.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on your description and symptoms, a comprehensive analysis suggests that you have chronic prostatitis caused by incomplete resolution of acute prostatitis. This condition has led to poor penile blood supply and increased sensitivity of the glans.First, chronic prostatitis should be treated, and spicy or irritating foods should be avoided in daily life. Daily hot Sitz baths or microwave heat therapy can be effective.
Guidance and recommendations: Treating chronic prostatitis is quite challenging. Generally, a treatment course lasts one month, and 3-4 courses are typically required. First, a bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test should be conducted, using sensitive medications that are effective and administered according to the prescribed course. Medications such as ofloxacin and doxycycline may be used.
It is also advisable to visit a well-regarded public tertiary-level traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) hospital, where a TCM practitioner can take your pulse and prescribe herbal decoctions for and treatment.
