Patient's question:
I want to consult a doctor. I've been feeling unwell for a while, and after a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said I have a problem with my prostate. I'd like to consult an expert about benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatitis, frequent urination, painful urination, and two weeks of rectal fullness. How should I treat this condition? Can you help me understand this?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, all your symptoms align with the typical clinical symptoms of chronic prostatitis, and the diagnosis of chronic prostatitis can be confirmed. According to the chronic prostatitis screening guidelines published by the Urology Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Association in China and abroad, it is recommended to use anti-inflammatory antibiotics in combination with traditional Chinese medicine for prostatitis, alpha-blockers, and a joint treatment. Generally, a course of treatment lasts for 4-6 weeks. At the same time, it is advisable to abstain from alcohol, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and conduct regular check-ups to adjust the treatment plan as needed. Benign prostatic hyperplasia can cause significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly, while also paying close attention to dietary issues.
