Patient's question:
Sexual activity for over ten years, with intercourse for four years, including during sexual activity, 2-3 times a week, but does not smoke or drink beer. On August 5, 2016, blood in the semen reappeared. Mild urethral discomfort before and after ejaculation, daily fatigue with no other symptoms. On September 7, I went to the hospital for a follow-up visit and had a two-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound of the rectum, which confirmed several prostate stones, the largest measuring 0.10.2 cm. The stones caused minor capillary rupture in the prostate. The diagnosis excluded seminal vesiculitis and suggested acute prostatitis. I was prescribed Dongtai Qianmao Tong capsules and have been taking them regularly ever since. During this period, I avoided erections, sexual activity, smoking, drinking, spicy foods, and maintained early sleep and wake times, avoiding overexertion. Now, I experience mild discomfort in the lower abdomen 2-3 times a day for a few seconds but without pain, and occasional mild urethral discomfort 1-2 times every one or two days. The urine is thin and not viscous. With medication, the condition has gradually stabilized but improved very slowly. Acute prostatitis...Doctor's answer:
Drink more warm water daily to ensure deep sleep and avoid overtime work. Eat more light meals and avoid fried, grilled, spicy, and irritating foods. Pay attention to self-care, enhance physical exercise, and prevent work-related colds. Actively treat infections in other parts of the body to reduce the body's disease resistance. Maintain a light diet, follow a ban on alcohol, and avoid spicy and irritating substances. Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, during treatment, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor, use medication appropriately, and maintain a light diet, avoiding spicy foods, smoking, and drinking beer.
