Patient's question:
I am 27 years old, male. During the last health check-up at my workplace, the results showed that I had prostatitis. Several of my colleagues who are about to retire have also been diagnosed with this condition. At my age, why would I get prostatitis? Was there a mistake? What is going on? The help I need: Why would a 27-year-old develop prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
There are many types of medications for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). In clinical diagnosis, medication for BPH is one of the treatment options, but not all patients with BPH are suitable for medication. The doctor will choose between surgical treatment and medication based on the patient's specific symptoms and condition. Surgical therapy is an important method for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia. However, since patients generally have to endure much greater pain and risks compared to medication, medication has also become one of the most important treatment methods. When patients face the harm of the prostate, they should actively take treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If the prostate condition does not improve with treatment, it is important to change the treatment plan promptly.
