Patient's question:
Recently, my husband has been feeling unwell frequently. We went to the hospital for a consultation with a doctor, who said it might be a problem with the prostate. How does the hospital conduct a thorough examination of the prostate? How should we prepare for the examination? What should we pay attention to in our daily lives? For prostate diseases, is medication required, or is a simple chemotherapy sufficient?Doctor's answer:
A thorough examination of the prostate requires a prostate ultrasound. The main focus is on the examination results, as there are various issues with the prostate, such as prostatitis or prostatic cysts, among others. Each type of prostate disease has different medication and treatment approaches, so it is recommended that you follow the examination results and seek medical guidance for treatment. The prostate can be stabilized, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications must be used symptomatically. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope that male patients can recover quickly!
