Patient's question:
I am already the manager of the company, and to others, I am considered successful in my career. However, recently I have been feeling uncomfortable. My wife insists that I go to the hospital for a thorough check-up. Lately, I haven't known how to urinate as often as before, and it has become much more difficult than usual. The hospital said I have a prostatic cyst. How should this be treated?Doctor's answer:
The etiology of prostatitis is complex, especially since the symptoms of chronic prostatitis are diverse, the causes are obscure, and diagnosis is difficult. Moreover, drugs often struggle to reach the affected area, making it easy for prostatitis to persist and recur repeatedly. A treatment approach combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine, along with physical therapy, should be adopted. Based on test results and the nature of the prostatitis, the most sensitive medications should be selected, administered in sufficient doses, and used according to a prescribed course. Timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Daily life should involve regular sexual activity and avoiding prolonged sitting.
