Patient's question:
Doctor, I want to ask what is prostatitis, and why does this condition reappear. What are the reasons for the recurrence of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is a type of prostate disease that causes a burning sensation during urination, along with symptoms such as urgency, frequency, dribbling, and purulent urethral discharge. It can also lead to edema of the bladder neck, resulting in difficulty urinating, a thin or intermittent urine stream, and in severe cases, urinary retention. In terms of the composition of prostate disease, not drinking enough water causes urine to become concentrated, allowing harmful toxic substances to accumulate. This can lead to reflux into the prostate ducts, causing harm and sepsis. Therefore, people who do not drink enough water are more prone to developing prostate disease, and so on. Eating spicy foods can affect the digestive and urinary tracts, causing congestion and easily leading to constipation. These factors are highly unfavorable for the local catabolic metabolism of the prostate and can all contribute to the recurrence of inflammation.
