Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing some pain in my genital area when using the restroom, along with frequent urination and urgency. There's also discomfort during urination. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was diagnosed as prostatitis. How should it be treated for the best results?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is caused by various complex reasons and requires a thorough medical examination to identify the underlying cause. Treatment should be tailored to the specific symptoms. In daily life, it is important to first focus on dietary adjustments: reduce the intake of spicy foods, coffee, and foods with strong acidity such as citrus and orange juice, as well as refined sugar and flour; increase the consumption of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and soy products, and consume honey in adequate amounts. Beef and eggs should also be eaten in sufficient quantities. Tell your boyfriend to quit drinking alcohol and avoid spicy and stimulating foods.
