Is bacterial prostatitis serious?

Patient's question:

Not noticeable, stop taking it. Recently taking Hongjitang Pharmaceutical's Prostate Capsules, less than a week in terms of assistance: What is the current condition of the illness, is it severe? Taking Prostate Capsules, how long does this medicine need to be taken? Is there a need to combine it with other medications?

Doctor's answer:

Benign prostatic hyperplasia may cause discomfort in the perineum, groin, and testicular area, lower back pain, frequent urination, a burning and pricking pain at the urethral orifice, and discharge.
