Patient's question:
These past few days, whenever I had sex with my wife, I've been experiencing intense pain in my legs, and it's very painful. I also often feel lower back pain and exhaustion. After a thorough examination, the doctor said I have acute prostatitis. I'd like to ask the doctor, how can acute prostatitis be treated to recover faster?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is divided into aseptic prostatitis and bacterial prostatitis. For your condition, the first step is to confirm the diagnosis of prostatitis, but it is recommended that you undergo further testing to determine whether it is bacterial or aseptic prostatitis. If the prostatic fluid appears yellow again, it may indicate bacterial prostatitis. It is advisable to visit a hospital for a prostatic fluid test. After diagnosis, treatment with medication should be determined. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the recurrence of the condition. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication promptly and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
