Patient's question:
A year ago, when I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, I found out that I had prostatitis. I brought home a bunch of medicine and took them, but after finishing them, I still tried to get more, yet it still didn't cure the condition. A few days ago, at a class reunion, a classmate mentioned that practicing Tai Chi could help with prostatitis, so I first wanted to ask how reliable Tai Chi is for treating prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Tai Chi is beneficial for concentrating the mind and regulating life energy. It can also assist in the treatment of prostatitis, serving as a supplementary therapeutic approach. Avoid drinking beer, eating spicy or stimulating foods, and masturbation. Additionally, controlling sexual activity is beneficial for treating prostatitis. Prostatitis may be caused by bacterial infection, so it is recommended to check a routine prostatic fluid test. If the test shows an increase in white blood cells and a decrease in lecithin corpuscles, levofloxacin and Yinhuai Muyan Ling granules can be used for treatment. Prostatitis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment.
