Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing frequent urination, less urine output, and more nighttime awakenings due to urination. Besides incomplete urination, I had a prostate examination once, which indicated that the white blood cell count was greater than 30. The doctor prescribed several medications, including Qian Mao Shu Le soft capsules, Compound Xu Jun capsules, and anti-inflammatory drugs. Is my condition serious?Doctor's answer:
The prostate is a chronic condition, primarily characterized by abnormal urination, abdominal discomfort, and a sense of fullness or heaviness in the lower abdomen. The treatment outcomes are not very ideal, and currently, clinical diagnosis generally adopts a combination of Eastern and Western medicine for treatment. For your case, the main focus should be on anti-inflammatory therapy, and you should also pay attention to balancing rest and activity. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely and symptomatic treatment, and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life.
