What is the meaning of checking leukocyte in prostatic fluid for HP?

Patient's question:

I was treated in a private hospital for 3 days, costing over 3,000 yuan, and they performed a circumcision. They said it would take 7 to 10 days for the inflammation to subside. Besides, they claimed my insides were dirty and needed cleaning, then injected something into my rectum for cleaning. It costs over 900 yuan every day. Am I being scammed?

Doctor's answer:

Circumcision surgery is a common minor procedure in urology clinics, and it does not usually require intravenous fluids or hospitalization after the operation. It is recommended to change the dressing appropriately at regular intervals, take oral cephalosporin antibiotics to prevent infection, and generally, the stitches can be removed after 7 days post-surgery, with full recovery. High white blood cell count in prostatic fluid may indicate a possible prostatitis. It is advised to seek follow-up and treatment at a regular hospital's urology department. If left untreated in a timely manner, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
