Patient's question:
Last June, a check revealed 20 white blood cells in the prostatic fluid. All symptoms were very obvious. I took medicine continuously for a year, which included a large amount of antibiotics and traditional Chinese medicine. In July of this year, a re-examination showed the white blood cells had unexpectedly risen to 45. Why did the symptoms almost disappear, yet the white blood cells decreased? What should I do? What's going on?Doctor's answer:
This consideration is triggered by prostatitis. Currently, a decision needs to be made regarding intravenous fluid administration for anti-inflammatory treatment. Additionally, dietary attention is required. Avoid spicy and seafood foods. It can be decided whether to use intravenous fluid for anti-inflammatory treatment in conjunction with oral anti-inflammatory medications or traditional Chinese herbal medicine for conditioning. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
