Patient's question:
I have a problem with frequent urination and a bit of urinary pain. I went to a pharmacy to buy medicine, and the doctor at the pharmacy said I have prostatitis and recommended me to buy Prostate Health. Besides other anti-inflammatory drugs, I didn't buy any. Can't just have a few symptoms and assume it's prostatitis. I feel it's more appropriate to get it checked out before taking medication. If I go to the hospital, what kind of tests do they need to do to diagnose prostatitis? How much will it cost?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms such as frequent urination and urinary pain could be due to prostatitis or a urinary tract infection. It is important to get a clear diagnosis before starting medication, as your actions are fully responsible for your health. To diagnose the condition, tests such as a urine test, a detailed examination of prostatic fluid, and a prostate ultrasound can be performed. These tests are generally available in regular hospitals at affordable costs. For male patients, it is crucial to immediately seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the test results. Additionally, it is important to control sexual activity and maintain a positive mood.
