Patient's question:
I am Xiao Hong's junior, and I have had prostatitis for 3 years. Now it has become chronic prostatitis, with urinary pain, frequent urination, urgent urination, and a burning sensation in the urethra. I have taken all kinds of antibiotics, but they don't work. What other medications can I take?Doctor's answer:
Chronic prostatitis has a complex etiology, diverse clinical diagnostic symptoms, and is highly prone to recurrence. When it comes to treating prostatitis, especially the recurring type, antibiotics, traditional drugs, and Chinese herbal medicines all have treatment drawbacks, leading to dysbiosis of the body's flora and weakened innate immunity, triggering a vicious cycle. It is recommended to use medications containing honeysuckle and Chinese mistletoe. Chinese mistletoe is a herb that tonifies while promoting circulation, helping to eliminate dampness and toxicity while preserving healthy qi without causing harm. It effectively reduces the body's immunity and tolerance. During treatment, it is advised to maintain good lifestyle habits and adopt a balanced diet.
