How is a prostatitis abscess treated?

Patient's question:

What should be done about a prostatitis abscess? What kind of medication should be used?

Doctor's answer:

Please go to a regular hospital's urology department to have a routine test for prostatic fluid first to confirm if there is significant prostatitis. If the inflammation is significant, it can be inferred that your current symptoms are caused by inflammation, so treating prostatitis will be sufficient. Small cysts can be temporarily left alone, but you need to have regular follow-up ultrasound examinations to monitor their condition. If the inflammation is not significant or the anti-inflammatory treatment is not effective, then consider that the frequent urination symptoms are indeed caused by cysts. In that case, cyst-targeted treatments can be used. Currently, there are several treatment methods for this. Generally, surgical treatment can be used for larger cysts or symptomatic small cysts. Prostatitis tends to be recurrent.
