Patient's question:
I had frequent urination and urgency a while ago, and it was diagnosed as prostatitis. There are calcifications in the prostate. After treatment for a period of time, I am now taking Qianmiao Shutong capsules and levofloxacin. What is the situation with itchy urethra today?Doctor's answer:
Do you usually smoke or drink alcohol? Do you dislike spicy, greasy, or irritating foods? Your current condition does not rule out a urinary tract infection. It is recommended to rest, drink more water to enhance metabolic decomposition, eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid smoking, drinking alcohol, and spicy, greasy, or irritating foods. If it doesn't improve, it is advised to seek further medical treatment at a hospital. Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and the condition is prone to relapse after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with the doctor's medication plan during treatment. Additionally, it is recommended to develop good lifestyle habits and maintain a proper diet during the treatment period.
