Patient's question:
I have prostatitis. Frequent urination and urgency have lasted for over ten years. I don't sleep well at night, sometimes feeling like something is leaking. Now I have lower back pain and backache, and I'm not feeling well. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
You are 32 years old and have had symptoms of urinary frequency and urgency for 10 years. Increased nighttime urination has led to poor rest, a sensation of fluid leakage from the urethra, and recurring lower back pain, along with fatigue. Based on these symptoms, prostatitis and enlargement should be considered. Treatment can be approached using traditional Chinese medicine. It is recommended to moderate sexual activity, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and engage in regular exercise at the gym. Therefore, the patient should take oral medication promptly and maintain a regular sexual life while avoiding prolonged sitting.
