Patient's question:
Prostatitis is my pain, I have endured it for many years. I have symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, lower back and leg pain, impotence, premature ejaculation, and incomplete urination. Sometimes, I feel that my memory is declining, and I also suspect it may be related to prostatitis. What kind of treatment methods are available?Doctor's answer:
1. Non-bacterial prostatitis patients with signs of bacterial infection, if not responsive to general therapy, may appropriately be treated with antimicrobial drugs. The selection of antimicrobial drugs should take into account the prostate-blood barrier formed by lipid membranes between the prostate acini and microcirculation, which hinders the passage of water-soluble antibiotics, significantly reducing the therapeutic effect. When prostate stones are present, they can serve as a sanctuary for bacteria.2. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs.
3. Physical therapy. Various physical factors are used for prostate physical therapy, such as microwave and radiofrequency.
