Patient's question:
I was treated for prostatitis a month ago, and after the treatment, I have been experiencing the recurrence of translucent mucus dripping from the urethral opening every morning. I haven't had much sexual activity either, usually having intercourse every half month or once a week. During this period, it has been recurring every morning that there is translucent mucus at the urethral opening—could it be that the prostatitis has flared up again?Doctor's answer:
Having symptoms of chronic prostatitis, but if there are no symptoms such as frequent urination or urgency, there is no need for treatment. Drink more water regularly.First, it is recommended that you avoid spicy and irritating foods in your diet and refrain from bad habits like overworking or drug abuse. Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is advisable to maintain a healthy lifestyle and follow a proper diet during the treatment period.
