Patient's question:
Doctor, I have been treating prostatitis since September 2018. First, I took traditional Chinese medicine for one and a half months, then medicine for a week, followed by antibiotics for 12 days. Next, I took traditional Chinese medicine for half a month, and then the doctor prescribed another half month of medicine. After that, I took traditional Chinese medicine for another half month. Now, the doctor has prescribed medicine for me again. During this period, I had one prostatic fluid culture (including mycoplasma, chlamydia, and gonococcus) and one semen culture (including mycoplasma, chlamydia, and gonococcus). Both cultures were negative. I have had five normal urinalysis tests, but I still have frequent urination. My urine turns yellow when I don’t take anti-inflammatory medicine. Doctor, what should I do now?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, you have previously suffered from prostatitis and have been treated with both Western and Chinese medicine. Currently, the main issue is yellow urine. The yellow urine is likely related to your hydration level. Additionally, you still experience frequent urination. It is recommended that you take some Chinese medicine tablets (Sanji Pian) and adopt a combination of Western and Chinese medicine treatment. For severe prostatitis patients, it is advised to seek medical attention as soon as possible and follow the doctor's advice for early treatment. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent worsening the condition.
