Patient's question:
I recently had a problem with unsatisfactory sexual activity, and the duration was getting shorter. I didn't take it to heart, thinking it was just work-related stress. Lately, I've been experiencing occasional bloating and pain in my bladder and groin. After a thorough examination, the doctor told me it's granulomatous prostatitis. How is granulomatous prostatitis treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello, you don't need to worry, it can heal on its own. Granulomatous prostatitis is generally manifested as distending pain and discomfort in the lumbosacral region, bladder area, groin, and perineum in medicine. Treatment includes medication, local physical therapy, and surgery, etc. Depending on the different causes, antibiotics, antihistamines, antitubercular drugs, steroid hormones, and immunosuppressants are used. Local or systemic infection symptoms and granulomatous prostatitis secondary to specific infections require antiviral treatment. The course of treatment is generally 2 to 4 weeks. For those with asthma or allergies, antihistamines and symptomatic treatment are still needed. Unless there is severe urinary tract obstruction, surgery is generally not required.
