Patient's question:
Doctor, I have prostatitis. I have been taking levofloxacin and Pulevan tablets. At first, they worked well, but in the past two days, I can't hold my urine anymore. I always feel like my bladder has no sensation, but there is a sensation in my penis. Some private hospitals say that to treat prostatitis, they insert a device into the prostate to extract fluid. Is this effective?Doctor's answer:
I don't know what specific discomfort you are experiencing. Prostatitis generally does not produce pus. I suggest you go to a regular hospital's urology department for a follow-up visit. You can have a prostate massage and have your prostatic fluid tested to see if there is a bacterial infection. The condition of prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term oral medication. For male patients, it is important to seek treatment immediately at a professional and regular hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of a thorough examination. Additionally, it is important to control sexual activity and maintain a good mood.
