Patient's question:
I am 33 years old. I have had two urinary tract infections since the end of last year until now. For the past one and a half months, I haven't felt any sexual desire. During the day, I have frequent urination, and my urine feels a bit like the symptoms of a previous urinary tract infection. Upon closer inspection, I noticed a small red spot at the urethral opening. The hospital examination revealed prostatitis and urethritis. Could you please help me make a guess? Thank you! What should I do about these symptoms?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis in men is primarily characterized by changes in urination, urethral discharge, pain, and reduced sexual function. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate and a thorough examination for prostatitis to identify the cause and provide timely symptomatic treatment. If prostatitis is diagnosed, oral medications such as Sanjin tablets and levofloxacin tablets can be taken, along with adequate rest. Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment plan and use medications appropriately.
