Patient's question:
I have been waking up multiple times at night recently. Every time, I feel a strong urge to urinate, but when I go to the toilet, there's very little urine, and it comes out in intermittent streams. I went to the hospital for treatment and was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis. Are there any treatment methods for chronic prostatitis? I don't want to have surgery and would prefer to be treated with medication.Doctor's answer:
Frequent urination at night, as well as symptoms like urgency and frequent urination during the day, may be indicative of chronic prostatitis. At the moment, surgery is not necessary. It is recommended to avoid spicy and irritating foods, maintain good personal hygiene, and use anti-inflammatory medications for relief as needed. In some cases, medications to regulate kidney function may also be prescribed. Prostatitis can be managed, but treatment often takes a long time and is prone to recurrence. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope male patients can recover quickly!
