Patient's question:
I have severe pain when I urinate, with some discomfort, and I've been experiencing frequent urination lately. I noticed that my urethral opening often has white discharge, which feels very dirty. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the result was prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis can recur, causing pain and discomfort in the groin area and genital region. Urinary symptoms include a burning sensation during urination, urinary urgency, frequent urination, and dysuria. Sometimes, it may be accompanied by terminal hematuria or purulent urethral discharge. Acute infections can also be accompanied by symptoms such as chills, fever, and fatigue.Prostatitis is a common condition in men, and it is very stubborn, making it difficult to treat with general medications. Western medicine does not have effective treatments, while traditional Chinese medicine has accumulated many highly effective methods through long-term clinical practice. Prostatitis can be cured, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medications should be used according to symptoms during treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
