Patient's question:
I usually sit down when I work, but recently I've been experiencing frequent urination with a burning and painful sensation during urination. There's also white discharge coming from my urethral opening. Feeling something was off, I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said it's prostatitis and mentioned that my condition requires intravenous drip treatment. Since I don't have time to be treated at the hospital, I'd like to get the drip treatment at a nearby community hospital. I'd like to ask what kind of intravenous drip is used for prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Recurring urinary pain is a common symptom of urinary tract infection, and prostatitis is also an inflammatory condition affecting the urethra. First, drink more water, pay attention to rest and maintain hygiene in diet and daily life. Avoid excessive spicy, greasy foods. If the infection is caused by mycoplasma, macrolide antibiotics can be considered. For common bacterial infections, ceftriaxone can be administered intravenously.In addition, during the treatment of prostatitis, besides medication, the patient's diet and psychological state are also crucial. It is essential for patients to maintain a positive mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary interference with the recovery of prostatitis.
