Patient's question:
I suddenly experienced frequent nocturia, difficulty urinating, incomplete urination, and occasional urinary pain in the past few months. After a thorough examination by my family, it was diagnosed as prostatitis. Later, after surgical treatment, it has improved. However, the doctor said that surgical treatment still carries the possibility of recurrence, and one should be cautious at all times. How should I regulate my body?Doctor's answer:
First, a combination of Eastern and Western medicine can be adopted. While receiving Western medical treatment, one can also consider traditional Chinese medicine and take some Chinese herbal remedies.Third, it is essential to abstain from alcohol in daily life, and maintain a regular lifestyle. Drink plenty of water and avoid sitting for long periods.
Second, the diet should be light, with a reduced intake of spicy and stimulating foods. Instead, consume more vegetables and fruits to obtain the necessary nutrients for digestion. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can help reduce the frequency of attacks. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take oral medication promptly and maintain a regular sexual life in daily life to prevent prolonged sitting.
