Patient's question:
I have had chronic prostatitis for three years. I have been treated in many places, but it hasn't been effectively cured. Two months ago, the doctor gave me two courses of Chinese medicine Diuretic Pills. Now I feel much better. I also had a thorough check-up at the hospital, and the doctor advised me to eat more diuretic fruits and foods in daily life. What fruits can be diuretic?Doctor's answer:
Long-term treatment for prostatitis, if there is no significant improvement, is likely chronic prostatitis, and treatment cannot be based on diuretics. It is recommended that treatment primarily focuses on standardized antibiotic treatment, with appropriate physical therapy, and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Watermelon contains a lot of sugar and water, which has a diuretic effect. Prostatitis is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication maintenance. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek medical treatment at professional and regular hospitals in a timely manner, and treatment should be considered based on examination results. Additionally, attention should be paid to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood.
