Patient's question:
Last year, I started to occasionally feel a bit uncomfortable in my body. Mainly, I felt a bit of pain when urinating, and sometimes I had the sensation of not being able to empty my bladder completely. I thought it might be some inflammation, so I took some anti-inflammatory medication myself, but it didn't seem to work very well. Recently, I've noticed that I'm going to the bathroom more frequently, and besides the odor down there, I'm very worried—it could be prostatitis, right?Doctor's answer:
Other laboratories may observe recurring abnormalities in semen quality when carefully examining patients with prostatitis, such as leukocytosis, semen liquefaction failure, hematospermia, and changes in sperm motility. Prostatitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term oral medication. Additionally, male patients should seek immediate medical attention at professional and reputable hospitals for diagnosis, and treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Furthermore, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, as well as maintain good personal hygiene.
