Patient's question:
24 years old, a few weeks ago, I had a thorough check-up at a urology hospital and was diagnosed with prostatitis, along with Candida, mixed bacteria, and another issue of penile congestion. The PFT value is 4.5, which is outside the normal range. The penile nerve sensitivity is too high, requiring surgery, but I'm too scared to undergo it, so I went back without taking any medication. I don't want to go to the hospital anymore. What should I do? Can I take medication to treat it myself?Doctor's answer:
Sometimes, when visiting a urology hospital, there are behaviors where doctors exaggerate the condition to scare patients, mainly for the purpose of high charges. Going to a top-tier hospital at least ensures that your condition is properly assessed, with charges that are fair and clear, without any exaggeration. Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
