Patient's question:
I have been experiencing fever recently, general weakness, and abnormal urination. I searched online myself and it might be prostatitis. I also went to Kangmei Hospital for a thorough examination, and it was indeed prostatitis. After treatment, I have now fully recovered, but I am worried it might recur. So, I want to ask, what causes prostatitis? Will it recur after being cured?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is generally related to excessive sexual activity or sexual life. Long-term sitting and a spicy diet may also lead to prostatitis. Prostatitis can occur. However, you should pay attention to hygiene and cleanliness, as well as the frequency of sexual activity, to prevent excessive sexual intercourse. Avoid spicy foods that affect your health, persist in Kegel exercises, and maintain warm sitz baths. These can all help prevent the occurrence of prostatitis. If it occurs, you can take medication promptly for treatment. The prostate can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually slow, and it is easy to relapse after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment.
