Patient's question:
My husband has had prostatitis for a long time. Usually, he takes many medications for treatment, but when he had a check-up, the doctor said his prostate was swollen. Why isn't the prostatitis shrinking?Doctor's answer:
Causes of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH): If chronic inflammation of the prostate is not completely resolved, it can lead to BPH. When urethritis, cystitis, condyloma, and other diseases are not fully resolved, it can cause congestion and fibrosis in prostate tissue. Due to a lack of physical exercise, arteries can harden, making local blood circulation in the prostate prone to fibrosis. If BPH is caused by inflammation, it will not contract. You may have inflammation as the cause. In addition to active anti-inflammatory treatment, you should drink more hot water.
