Patient's question:
I am 23 years old and have been masturbating frequently. My current symptoms are that I don't feel sleepy at night but feel tired during the day, have no energy, my lower legs are cold, my lower abdomen hurts, I have no spirit at all, and when I take a nap, I sweat a lot, so much that my pillow gets completely soaked. I am very sad. After looking up some information, I think it might be prostatitis. I don't dare to tell my family.1. Is it prostatitis? If so, what type of prostatitis is it?
2. Besides masturbation, are there other ways to contract prostatitis?
3. How should I tell my family? I don't want them to know about my masturbation.
4. If I want to solve this myself, what kind of medicine should I take? I have personally tried it and it has a noticeable effect.
5. If I don't treat it, what will happen if I leave it untreated? What kind of assistance do I need: How should it be treated?
Doctor's answer:
A healthy lifestyle + appropriate medication + regular physical therapy. Since the recurrence of chronic prostatitis in many cases is related to unhealthy living habits, it is important to maintain an open mind, a calm mood, eat a balanced diet, drink plenty of water, not smoke, drink less alcohol, avoid spicy foods, have a regular sex life, and avoid overexertion or long-term bicycle riding. If you have any doubts, you can come to our Hongqiao Hospital for a thorough examination of your chronic prostatitis condition, as it tends to recur and requires long-term medication treatment.
