Does sexually transmitted diseases have a relationship with prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Before March, I contracted a sexually transmitted disease. The examination revealed Mycoplasma and fungi, but also second-order neuron prostatitis. Later, I self-treated with levofloxacin and fluconazole for 13 days. Up to now, I still feel a numb sensation below the urethral opening. Three days ago, during a check-up, it was found that there was a plus sign in the prostatitis, followed by a prostatic fluid culture. The result showed Staphylococcus without other bacteria, but it had antibiotic resistance. In the past few days, while washing between my legs, I noticed some things like dust from my body on the lower part of my penis.

Doctor's answer:

Prostatitis, it is recommended to use antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment. Short-term oral alpha-blockers can also be considered. Suggestions include quitting smoking and alcohol, avoiding spicy foods, refraining from masturbation, and preventing overly frequent sexual activity to avoid local cold stimuli. Additionally, physical therapy can enhance the therapeutic effect.
For patients with prostatitis, in addition to immediate treatment, it is important to maintain a positive mood in daily life, as a good mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you!
