Patient's question:
Hello, could you please ask about this disease, prostatitis, what are the causes?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis refers to acute and chronic inflammation caused by specific and non-specific infections of the prostate, leading to systemic or local symptoms. Prostatitis can be divided into non-specific bacterial prostatitis, idiopathic bacterial prostatitis (also known as chronic bacterial prostatitis), specific prostatitis (caused by pathogens such as gonorrhea, tuberculosis, fungi, parasites, etc.), non-specific granulomatous prostatitis, prostatodynia, prostatic congestion, and prostatitis caused by other pathogens (such as viruses, mycoplasma, chlamydia, etc.). It is recommended to regularly visit a formal hospital for thorough examination and treatment to confirm the diagnosis.
