Patient's question:
At first, I didn't notice any discomfort, but in the following days, I frequently experienced urinary urgency. Sometimes, I would wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, and after finishing, I would still feel the urge to urinate but couldn't. It was very uncomfortable. The doctor said it was related to the prostate. What kind of medication should be taken for the prostate?Doctor's answer:
The causes of prostatitis are diverse, and treatment primarily depends on symptoms and examinations to determine whether it is bacterial or non-bacterial prostatitis. Prostatitis caused by bacterial infection is best treated with cephalosporin antibiotics to reduce inflammation. For non-bacterial prostatitis, Chinese herbal medicine warm sitz baths, prostate massage, and medications such as Chinese herbal pills like Qianlie Ping and Pule'an tablets can be used. Please follow the doctor's advice for specific medication use. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment.
