How much does a prostate examination cost?

Patient's question:

These days, I often feel the urge to urinate frequently, so I thought about getting a prostate check-up at the hospital. But I've never had a check-up there before. I'm worried about the high cost, so I'd like to know how much the front-line test fees are approximately. If it's prostatitis, how should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Recurring symptoms of frequent urination and urgency may be caused by irritative symptoms due to prostatitis. It is necessary to undergo further detailed examination of prostatic fluid at the hospital for diagnosis. The cost of this examination is not high. If the condition is caused by a prostatitis infection, anti-inflammatory medication should be used to suppress it. It is important to avoid spicy and irritating foods. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
