Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I would like to know what foods are suitable for prostatitis. I was diagnosed with prostatitis a few weeks ago and am currently undergoing medication treatment. I would like to consult about what foods are suitable for prostatitis. Please don't ask what to eat, because I'm afraid it might conflict with my medication.Doctor's answer:
Prostate patients, in addition to actively using medication for treatment, dietary factors are also very important. Drink more water and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits; avoid foods such as dog meat, lamb, animal organs, black sesame seeds, chives, chili peppers, and scallions, and also avoid drinking beer. Although these foods do not conflict with medication, they can cause congestion in the prostate, worsen the symptoms of prostatitis, and affect the effectiveness of prostatitis treatment. For prostatitis patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If treatment is not timely, it may affect fertility.
