Patient's question:
I have chronic prostatitis and want to ask if frequent urination and nocturia will lead to urinary tract obstruction or kidney damage after a long time. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of prostatitis relies on medication for 30% and lifestyle adjustments for 70%. It is necessary to change unhealthy habits, avoid prolonged sitting, spicy foods, and alcohol. Maintain a regular lifestyle, do not have sexual activity too frequently, and if possible, abstain. Go to bed early and wake up early. Daily physical exercise helps to strengthen the body and aids in recovery. Prostatitis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, use medication appropriately, and maintain a light diet, avoiding stimulating foods.
