Patient's question:
Hello, how should prostatitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The causes of prostatitis are complex, especially chronic prostatitis, which exhibits diverse symptoms, has obscure etiology, and is difficult to diagnose. Moreover, drugs often struggle to reach the affected area, making it easy for prostatitis to persist and recur repeatedly. Adopting a treatment method that combines traditional Chinese and Western medications with physical therapy can yield satisfactory clinical outcomes. This involves determining sensitive medications based on test results and the nature of prostatitis, administering them in sufficient doses and following prescribed courses, while selectively complementing these with physical methods such as microwave, shortwave, guided fusion, multifunctional therapy, and injection. It is recommended to promptly seek follow-up treatment at a specialized urological hospital's prostatitis department, as prostatitis tends to fluctuate in severity.
