Patient's question:
I am a homebody and don't have a girlfriend. I have always relied on masturbation to satisfy myself. Recently, I found out that I have prostatitis. I don't have a deep understanding of this issue, and I would like to consult a doctor about what to do if excessive masturbation leads to prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is essential to first break the habit of masturbation. Prostatitis is often related to damp-heat, kidney deficiency, and other factors. It requires implementing anti-inflammatory and kidney-tonifying treatments, such as taking ofloxacin, azithromycin, etc. If it is kidney deficiency, one can take Liuwei Dihuang Wan or Jinkui Shenqi Wan for long-term regulation. In daily life, it is also important to avoid spicy and irritating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, and engage in appropriate physical exercise. The condition of prostatitis tends to recur frequently.
