Patient's question:
At the beginning of the month, I carefully reviewed the first ultrasound image of the prostate, which showed calcifications. There was also a slight increase in urinary frequency and urgency, and blood creatinine levels were slightly elevated (I couldn't transmit the blood test image). The doctor diagnosed chronic prostatitis. I took Qian Mao Shutong capsules and Cefixime capsules for a week, and felt that the urinary frequency and urgency had slightly improved. Then I stopped taking them for about ten days. In the past two days, I've noticed the urinary frequency and urgency returning. I then had a follow-up examination and did the second and third ultrasound images for a careful review.Hello, the ultrasound results for both kidneys were normal, and now the creatinine level has returned to the normal range. However, there is a slightly elevated level of Cystatin C. Considering the results of the previous careful review, what could be the situation?
Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described above and the observations from the images, a comprehensive analysis indicates that the 27-year-old male, experiencing frequent urination and urgency, has been diagnosed with prostatitis after a thorough examination. Since he has been diagnosed with prostatitis, the treatment period is at least one month, not a week. The current treatment duration of one week is too short, and it requires focused treatment. Other lab test results being normal are not closely related to prostatitis.
