Patient's question:
My prostatitis has improved after taking medication. After the doctor carefully examined the prostatic fluid, they said it was okay. In the past few days, I've felt mild pain when urinating through the urethra, and my lower abdomen becomes uncomfortable when sitting for a long time. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Patient: I am Doctor Yu. Based on your symptom description, you have prostatitis. Prostatitis is a chronic disease that requires a systematic treatment. Relying on single drugs and antibiotics alone is not very effective. I suggest you adopt a pure Chinese medicine treatment based on syndrome differentiation and treatment. After curing, it will never recur. Physical therapy (such as direct insertion, rectal microwave, and shortwave) is harmful to the body, and it is also expensive. Western medicine treatment cannot treat the root cause and will lead to recurrence after curing. Therefore, patients should receive timely symptomatic treatment and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
