Patient's question:
A 33-year-old male with prostatitis experienced a recurrence after a period of treatment. He has taken many medications. What are the mild symptoms of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello, prostatitis is a common disease in men, mostly occurring in young and middle-aged adults. In clinical diagnosis, prostatitis can be divided into acute and chronic types. Acute prostatitis is less common in clinical diagnosis, while chronic prostatitis has a higher incidence rate in adults. For severe bladder irritation symptoms, pain-relieving and spasm-relieving medications, as well as hot sitz baths, can be used to alleviate symptoms. Antibiotics that can be used include penicillin, ampicillin, (cephalexin), and Cefixime.Treatment for chronic prostatitis includes general treatment, prostate massage, medication injection, isolation of surrounding prostate tissues, and the combined use of antibiotics. Additionally, traditional Chinese medicine treatment can be used in conjunction.
