How is chronic prostatitis primarily treated?

Patient's question:

Hello, can patients with both chronic prostatitis and diabetes undergo minimally invasive surgery for prostatitis? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of prostatitis primarily involves medication, mainly antibiotic therapy, supplemented by comprehensive evaluation treatments. Commonly used medications include erythromycin, compound sulfamethoxazole, and penicillin derivatives. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and alcohol, avoid spicy foods, maintain a proper and normal sex life, undergo weekly prostate massages, physical therapy, and hot Sitz baths. These measures can enhance absorption, stabilize blood circulation, and alleviate symptoms. We wish you a speedy recovery.
The daily treatment for prostatitis patients mainly involves oral medications. Patients can take various oral medications and supplement them with many vitamins, while also paying attention to self-care, maintaining a balanced diet, and avoiding cold foods. We hope that prostatitis patients can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
