After prostatectomy, what problems should be paid attention to?

Patient's question:

Gender: Male
Age: 61
It was about two years ago when the symptoms appeared, and the medication has not improved.
Medical history and treatment effectiveness:
1. Bought medication from a hospital at home.
2. Underwent thorough examination at the hospital, but the medication did not work.
3. Recently prepared for surgery.
What kind of assistance is needed:
1. How effective is surgery for prostatitis?
2. What precautions should be taken after the surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Acute prostatitis is often treated with surgery, so patients should pay attention to dietary issues after the operation: Alcoholic beverages, spicy foods like chili peppers, etc., have a stimulating effect on the prostate and urethra. After consumption, they can cause blood vessels in the prostate to expand, edema, or reduce the prostate's resistance, often leading to clinical symptoms of prostate discomfort and contribute to the growth and adaptation of the prostate's resident microbiota, which may result in acute prostatitis or worsen chronic prostatitis symptoms. However, upon careful observation, the main foods that trigger prostate congestion (alcoholic beverages and chili peppers) do not cause prostatitis in all consumers. The climate in northern China is harsh.
