Patient's question:
In the past few months, I have been feeling dizzy, weak in my limbs, accompanied by frequent urination and urgent urination, a heavy feeling in my lower abdomen, redness and swelling at the urethral orifice, split urine, redness and swelling of the prostate, increased libido, poor appetite, and often neurasthenia. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis. I bought Six Flavor Rehmannia Pills from a pharmacy. Can chronic prostatitis be treated with Six Flavor Rehmannia Pills?Doctor's answer:
Consider the high possibility of prostatitis. About 40% of men experience varying degrees of recurrence. Your current urinary problems and lower back pain are all caused by it, and you also have kidney deficiency according to traditional Chinese medicine.Recommendations:
1. Go to a formal hospital with a urology specialty to have a thorough examination of prostatic fluid to identify the cause and confirm the diagnosis. Treatment should be symptomatic, using a two-dimensional integrated approach with a course of about 3 months.
2. Quit smoking and drinking, reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods, drink more water, and avoid overexertion and prolonged sitting. Sexual activity should be restrained [about 2 times per week]. Avoid cold exposure.
