Patient's question:
I got prostatitis last June, experiencing frequent urination and white discharge with yellow, jelly-like semen. After taking Cefixime for half a month, it didn't help. I then consulted a traditional Chinese medicine doctor and took a month's worth of tonifying herbs, along with a full box of Qian Mao Shu Tong capsules. My frequent urination reduced, the white discharge stopped, and my semen returned to normal. Recently, after eating two spicy meals, the white discharge and frequent urination returned, but these symptoms improved after three or four days. My semen has remained slightly yellow and jelly-like. Has it recurred? Do I need treatment? Can it heal on its own?Doctor's answer:
This still needs to consider the onset of illness, requiring a diet free of spicy and stimulating foods, as well as quitting smoking and alcohol. Oral medication can be used for treatment, as the symptoms are not severe, and other medications can be temporarily avoided to prevent long hours of sitting and overtime work. In addition to timely treatment for prostatitis, friends with the condition should maintain a positive mindset to face the disease, as only then can they receive timely and appropriate treatment. In terms of diet, it is important to focus on light and bland foods, avoiding spicy foods.
