Patient's question:
Prostatitis and chlamydia infection: How to treat them? Lately, I've been feeling a slight stinging sensation at the urethral opening when urinating, and there are some bubbles in my urine. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was told I have prostatitis and a chlamydia infection. I want to know what treatment options are available for someone in my situation.Doctor's answer:
Chlamydia infection-induced prostatitis is best treated with macrolide anti-inflammatory drugs during the course of treatment, such as tobramycin, azithromycin, roxithromycin, erythromycin, and other medications. During medication, attention should be paid to local hygiene, and sexual activity should be avoided to prevent reinfection in women. During the treatment period, it is advisable to drink more water and urinate frequently to facilitate the excretion of prostatitis and alleviate symptoms. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should take medication according to symptoms and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
