Can color Doppler ultrasound detect prostatitis?

Patient's question:

I always randomly experience lower abdominal pain again, and my body always lacks energy. Moreover, I now urinate 10 to 15 times a day, especially at night, which greatly affects deep sleep. I think it might be prostatitis. Can an ultrasound detect prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

This symptom is primarily considered to be caused by prostatitis or urinary tract infection inflammation. It is important to drink more water and urinate more frequently. Avoid holding urine for long periods, as this can easily lead to urinary tract infections. For prostatitis, the main approach is to perform a prostate ultrasound and examine semen and urine regularly to identify the specific cause of the infection and provide targeted treatment. It is important to avoid sitting for long periods, as prostatitis can be relieved with proper attention. However, the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and adopt a healthy lifestyle with proper diet during the treatment period. We hope that male patients can recover quickly!
