Patient's question:
Prostatitis is indeed quite difficult to treat. How is prostatitis infected? What kind of help do you care about: the routes of infection of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
The infection pathways of the prostate are generally divided into three aspects:Direct spread through the urethra: Bacteria enter the urethra through the urethral opening and then penetrate the prostate through its ducts, leading to acute or chronic prostatitis.
Infection via the bloodstream: Pathogenic bacteria from infections in other parts of the body can reach the prostate through the bloodstream, causing prostatitis.
Lymphatic infection: Inflammations adjacent to the prostate, such as those in the rectum, colon, bladder, or urethra, can spread to the prostate through lymphatic channels, resulting in prostatitis.
To avoid unnecessary harm, I hope the above answers can help you. Thank you.
