Patient's question:
I went to the hospital two days ago for a thorough examination of prostatitis. I only have a translucent mucus discharge when I have a bowel movement every morning. They said it's normal and that I'm just experiencing mental issues now. I haven't had any recurrence of frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, or abdominal discomfort. How should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
There are indeed symptoms of prostatitis, and white discharge from the urethral opening is also a symptom of prostatitis. In normal prostatic fluid, there are 3-4 plus signs of lecithin and no pus cells. In this case, it is recommended to pay attention to rest, relax your mindset, quit smoking and drinking, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and restrain from sexual activity. The presence of pus cells in prostatic fluid indicates a possible bacterial infection, and appropriate antibiotic treatment can be taken. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid irritating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
