Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing some lower abdominal bloating and frequent urination, along with a split stream during urination. When I went to the hospital for a urinalysis, the results were normal, but the doctor diagnosed me with chronic prostatitis and prescribed Qian Mao Shu Wan and Tamsulosin Hydrochloride. How should I deal with a severe case of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
If you have prostatitis, it is recommended to treat it with antibiotics for anti-inflammatory purposes. Quit smoking and drinking alcohol. Avoid spicy foods. Refrain from sexual intercourse and avoid excessive frequency of sexual activity. Prevent local cold stimuli. At the same time, adopting physical therapy can enhance the therapeutic effect. The method involves sitting in a basin of warm water for about 10 minutes, which has a good therapeutic effect. Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to develop good lifestyle habits and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period.
