Patient's question:
I had a thorough check-up for a urinary tract infection half a month ago and took medication for half a month. The re-examination was fine, but I still have frequent urination and some pain in my genital area. It feels like a burning sensation when urinating. I had an ultrasound and a urinalysis done. Today, I went for a detailed check-up of the prostate. He asked about my symptoms, and I told him. He said I have acute prostatitis, but he didn't conduct a thorough examination, wasting a whole day. I bought some medication to take. I'm 27 years old now. Do my symptoms indicate acute prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is difficult to cure with general medications. Western medicine and Western drugs are ineffective for prostatic diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has accumulated many unique treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. It is recommended to use a combination of herbs such as Poria, lotus seeds, Alisma orientale, Epimedium, Tribulus terrestris, Cuscuta chinensis, Eucommia ulmoides, Polygonum multiflorum, mulberry, Rosae Rugosae Fructus, Hystrix Durae Cornu, Ostrea Gigas Powder, Poria, Goji berries, Achyranthes Bidentata, Yanggu Powder, and White Fish Oil to treat prostatitis. This combination is effective and produces definite results. The use of these herbs completely breaks the traditional approach of treating prostatic diseases primarily with anti-inflammatory methods.
