How much does prostatitis cost?

Patient's question:

How much does prostatitis cost? Recently, I've been feeling a lot of pain when urinating. I can't wait for it to stop. I have difficulty urinating. After taking anti-inflammatory medication, the effect is not obvious. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with acute bacterial prostatitis. How should I treat it?

Doctor's answer:

Pathogenic infection is a major septicemia factor in bacterial prostatitis. Due to the body's resistance, toxic bacteria or other pathogens can infect the prostate and rapidly colonize it. Most infections are hematogenous or retrograde urethral transmission. They are primarily treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics and supportive therapy. Patients with urinary retention can undergo catheterization or suprapubic cystostomy to drain the prostate. Prostate abscess patients can be treated with surgical drainage.
