Patient's question:
Where to go to the hospital for prostate treatment? Recently, I had frequent urination and urgency, and after a thorough examination at the hospital, it was said that it was a prostate disease. How should this be treated? What methods are effective?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis, if not treated in a timely manner, can lead to benign prostatic hyperplasia, which affects the control of the bladder outlet, preventing the complete emptying of urine and resulting in residual urine. Residual urine is an excellent medium for bacterial growth, and with the compromised defense mechanism of the bladder mucosa, it makes it highly susceptible to urinary tract infections such as pyelonephritis. If the treatment is not thorough at this stage, it can progress from pyelonephritis or hydronephrosis to nephritis, and ultimately to uremia. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment.
