Patient's question:
I have a history of about 10 years, and I am currently taking traditional Chinese medicine prescribed by a doctor. I have been taking it for about 6 months. During the medication process, symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and white discharge have improved. The size of the prostate has not changed significantly. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Chinese herbal medicine have accumulated many unique treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese herbs such as Poria, lotus seeds, Alisma orientale, Epimedium, Tribulus terrestris, Cuscuta chinensis, Eucommia ulmoides, Polygonum multiflorum, mulberry, Rosae rugosae, hedgehog skin, sea cucumber powder, cloud poria, goji berries, Achyranthes bidentata, Yanggu powder, and white fish fat in combination for treatment. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
