Patient's question:
The doctor helped the elderly patient with prostatitis empty the toilet the day before yesterday. He wiped his hands directly with a dry towel and then ate some cookies. Over the past two days, he has felt some discomfort. Could it be that the cookies were contaminated with bacteria?Doctor's answer:
In the case you described, it is likely that the cookies were contaminated with bacteria from the toilet. Recommendation: Pay attention to personal hygiene, wash hands frequently.

Avoid delaying medical consultation. If the prostate condition does not improve after treatment, it is necessary to adjust the treatment plan promptly.
