Patient's question:
I went to the urology department last month to get circumcised because they said I had prostatitis and needed treatment. They suggested enema for detoxification, and each session costs over 800. I've had it done seven times now, but I haven't gotten better. Am I being scammed?Doctor's answer:
Common types of prostatitis include acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic non-bacterial prostatitis, and prostatodynia. For the treatment of acute bacterial prostatitis, the combination of rectal medication is quite effective; it needs to be coordinated with intravenous medication, with a course lasting one to ten days. The condition of the foreskin is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and reputable hospitals in a timely manner, and treatment should be considered based on careful examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking, and pay attention to personal hygiene.
