Patient's question:
Doctor, I haven't been feeling well recently, so I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said I have prostatitis. What are the specific treatments for prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis, if left untreated for a long time, can interfere with sexual function and may also lead to a decline in sperm quality. Therefore, it is important to seek treatment promptly. Treatment for chronic prostatitis includes general therapy, prostate massage, medication injection, drainage and isolation around the prostate, and the combined use of antibiotics, among others. Additionally, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be complementary. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is crucial to actively seek diagnosis at professional and reputable hospitals and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Furthermore, pay attention to a proper diet, avoid sexual activity, and finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
