Patient's question:
My husband has had prostatitis for a long time. He recently felt uncomfortable and went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it was epididymitis and prostatitis. What should I do about epididymitis and prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
This condition is suspected to possibly be chronic prostatitis, with the main pathogen being Staphylococcus. Treatment suggestions include avoiding sitting on cold stones for long periods, taking warm baths frequently, and considering the use of honeysuckle suppositories for treatment. It is advisable to consume more vegetables and fruits to prevent recurrence of constipation. For patients with epididymitis, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely symptomatic treatment and maintain regular sexual activity in daily life to prevent prolonged sitting.
