Prostatitis abscess treatment precautions

Patient's question:

Married to my wife for many years, without any contraception, but never got pregnant. Only after checking the hospital did I know. Please ask about the precautions for the treatment of prostatitis abscess.

Doctor's answer:

Prostatitis abscess is a complication of acute prostatitis, urethritis, and epididymitis. The most common causative organisms are aerobic Gram-negative bacilli, followed by Staphylococcus aureus. Patients are typically aged 40-60, presenting with symptoms such as frequent urination, urinary obstruction or retention, perineal pain, evidence of acute epididymitis, hematuria, and purulent urethral discharge, which are less common. General supportive and symptomatic treatment is encouraged, including bed rest, semi-recumbent position to localize inflammation, adequate nutrition and fluid intake, physical cooling measures for high fever, correction of electrolyte disturbances and acid-base balance, and sedatives and analgesics for severe pain. In addition to standard treatment for prostatitis, patients should also pay attention to nursing aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities.
