Patient's question:
I suspect I might have some prostatitis because I urinate more frequently, often need to go to the toilet, and can't hold it in. This also bothers me quite a bit. I don't want to see a doctor and would like to take some anti-inflammatory medication to cure it. So, I'd like to ask for some advice. Does amoxicillin treat prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Suspecting I have prostatitis, I often go to the bathroom and can't hold my urine, which is quite troublesome. Amoxicillin is just a regular anti-inflammatory drug, and its effect on prostatitis is not very significant, but it does have some. If you have prostatitis, avoid sitting for long periods and prolonged bicycle riding. Locally, you can use warm water for sitz baths to improve blood circulation and speed up the resolution of inflammation. You can also regularly perform prostate massage, which can be effective. Prostatitis is a serious condition, and patients are advised to seek treatment immediately. It is hoped that patients can follow their doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care and maintain a proper diet to avoid worsening the condition. The above answers are hoped to help you. Thank you.
