How is infectious prostatitis treated?

Patient's question:

Lately, I've been feeling a bit uncomfortable down there. Sometimes it hurts when I urinate, and recently, it's been especially painful during intimacy with my wife. When I went to the doctor, they said I have infectious prostatitis. How should infectious prostatitis be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Prostatitis generally requires treatment under the guidance of a doctor, including oral anti-inflammatory drugs or prostate medications. If necessary, antibiotic treatment may be needed. It is important to drink plenty of warm water, avoid foods that cause diarrhea and spicy foods. Generally, with persistent treatment, the condition will gradually improve. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided to prevent worsening the condition. Rest is essential, and overexertion should be avoided. Personal hygiene should also be paid attention to.
In addition to timely treatment for prostatitis, patients should maintain a positive attitude in facing the disease. Only in this way can the patient receive timely and appropriate treatment. At the same time, attention should be paid to dietary care, with a focus on light and nutritious foods.
