Patient's question:
These days, my lower abdomen always feels bloated, and I don't know why. Some people say it's due to the prostate. Hello, is lower abdominal bloating caused by the prostate?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis in men causes abdominal distension in the lower abdomen due to the nerve reflex produced by the inflamed prostate stimulating the bladder. The treatment of male prostatitis requires avoiding long periods of riding or sitting, staying up late, drinking alcohol, and consuming spicy foods. Conduct a routine examination of prostatic fluid, perform prostatic massage, followed by a routine urine examination and urine culture to identify drug sensitivity. Determine if there is a pathogenic bacterial infection based on the results and choose a sensitive antibiotic for one month of treatment.
