Patient's question:
A while ago, I had a physical examination at my workplace and was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis and chronic epididymitis. What should I do about chronic prostatitis and chronic epididymitis?Doctor's answer:
The prostate primarily requires a comprehensive evaluation of treatment drugs combined with physical therapy because the prostate is tightly wrapped by a thick lipid membrane. It is difficult for drugs to penetrate the inflammatory lesions alone. Not only does this fail to achieve a certain effect, but it also leads to certain dependencies. Therefore, in clinical diagnosis, physical therapy is often adopted. Epididymitis tends to recur frequently, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is essential to seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, proper diet should be maintained, and sexual activity should be avoided.
