Prostatitis can cause frequent urination, urgency, and discomfort. You can visit the urology department of a hospital for a thorough examination and treatment with anti-inflammatory medications.Recommendations:
- Avoid spicy and irritating foods; maintain a light diet and supplement with zinc appropriately.
- Avoid frequent sexual activity to reduce irritation.
- Undergo a prostatic fluid examination at the urology department and take anti-inflammatory medications such as Qian Mao Shutong capsules.
Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment.
