Patient's question:
My friend has prostatitis, and he's only in his early thirties. Hello, is this prostatitis serious? How should it be treated? Are men prone to getting prostatitis? I'm very worried that I might get this disease too. How can I prevent prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is a common disease, primarily occurring in long-distance truck drivers and young and middle-aged men. These reasons are due to irregular daily routines, prolonged excessive night work, and long periods of sitting, which lead to poor blood circulation in the perineum. When the prostate swells and forms blood clots, it results in prostatitis. Prevention involves giving up masturbation habits, maintaining good personal hygiene, relaxing the mind and emotions, and engaging in regular physical activity and exercise. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Additionally, male patients should seek professional and reputable medical treatment immediately, with treatment decisions based on examination results.
