Patient's question:
Today I went to a small hospital for a health check-up. The doctor said I have prostatitis. I don't know if it's serious or if I need to go to a regular hospital for treatment. How is it treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is a chronic and easily recurring disease. If not treated thoroughly, it can easily relapse and even interfere with the patient's sexual function and fertility, severely impacting their quality of life. It is recommended that you seek treatment early. Treating prostatitis is relatively slow, so it is best to avoid sexual activity during the treatment period. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce relapses. If not treated promptly, it can affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek treatment promptly according to their symptoms and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
