Patient's question:
This symptom has persisted for some time. It's been feeling like lower back pain and a constant sensation of heaviness in the lower abdomen, along with a feeling of incomplete urination. There's also some secretions leaking from the urethral opening. The hospital examination said it was prostatitis. Please ask: What should I eat to prevent granulomatous prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Treatment includes medication, local physical therapy, and surgery, among others. Depending on the underlying cause, drugs such as antibiotics, antihistamines, antitubercular agents, corticosteroids, and immunosuppressants may be used. For cases with local or systemic infectious symptoms and granulomatous prostatitis secondary to specific infections, anti-infective treatment is required, with a typical course lasting 2 to 4 weeks. For patients with asthma or allergies, additional antihistamine and symptomatic treatment may be necessary. Surgery is generally not required unless there is severe urinary obstruction. The majority of cases of granulomatous prostatitis can spontaneously resolve without specific treatment, so if symptoms are mild or absent, no treatment is needed, and only close follow-up is required.
