What is the effect of red light therapy on prostatitis?

Patient's question:

I have prostatitis, and taking medication hasn't helped at all. I'm considering trying a red light therapy device—is it worth it?

Doctor's answer:

Theoretically, red light can treat prostatitis, but it is rarely performed in regular hospitals because its cost is relatively high. If you are not of advanced age, it is not recommended to blindly pursue physical treatment. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to actively seek diagnosis in professional and regular hospitals and consider treatment based on examination results. Additionally, it is necessary to quit smoking and drinking and pay attention to personal hygiene.
