Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis one and a half years ago. Three days ago, I noticed blood in my urine during nighttime urination, and the next day's urinalysis showed elevated red blood cells (result: 0.66 p/ul). The ultrasound report from the MRI examination described the prostate as having non-uniform echoes with internal strong echoes. The diagnosis indicated a right kidney nodule, prostate stones, rough bladder wall, no abnormalities in the left kidney, and no dilation of the bilateral ureters.Regarding past treatment and its effectiveness, there is no family history. The doctor prescribed Pausitex tablets, Ciprofloxacin tablets, Wenglitong capsules, Ningmitai capsules, and other various medications. However, these drugs are quite expensive and take a long time to take effect.
Could you please suggest other treatment methods or more affordable and effective medications for my recurring condition? Thank you for your explanation and hard work.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, prostatitis is recommended to be treated with antibiotics for anti-inflammatory purposes. Short-term oral alpha-blockers (such as Doxazosin) can also be used. Quit smoking and drinking alcohol. Avoid spicy foods.Advice: Avoid masturbation and excessive sexual activity, as well as local cold exposure. Additionally, physical therapy can enhance the treatment effect. The method involves sitting in a warm bath. (Prostatitis is very severe, and it is advised that patients start treatment immediately. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care, maintain a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition. The above advice is hoped to help you. Thank you.)
