Patient's question:
My husband has chronic prostatitis, which always recurs repeatedly. Whenever it recurs, he experiences frequent urination, urgency, difficulty urinating, and white discharge from the urethral opening. Each time it causes him great pain. The doctor recommends long-term continuous treatment to cure it completely. How long does it take to treat chronic prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Chronic prostatitis is a chronic condition that requires a longer treatment period, and self-healing is challenging. You need to have enough patience. It is recommended that patients go to a formal Grade III-A hospital for follow-up treatment and actively cooperate with the doctor. The doctor will prescribe medication based on the symptoms. Patients should pay attention to lifestyle adjustments, avoid spicy and stimulating foods, and enhance physical exercise. Tolerating the treatment for 12 weeks can reduce the recurrence rate of the disease. Prostate conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication treatment.
