Patient's question:
Due to the constant urination and accompanying pain during urination recently, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination and diagnosis. It was found that I have prostatitis. I would like to ask how should prostatitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is a relatively common disease, most of which occurs in young people. Men with prostatitis mainly experience symptoms such as frequent urination and abdominal pain. Prostatitis is mainly divided into two types: infectious prostatitis and non-infectious prostatitis. If local redness, swelling, heat, pain, and fever suddenly occur, it is primarily considered infectious prostatitis. It is generally recommended to first go to a local regular hospital to perform bacterial culture of prostatic fluid to identify the pathogen and then receive targeted anti-infection treatment. If there are no obvious signs of infection, it is considered non-infectious prostatitis. It is generally recommended to receive traditional Chinese medicine treatment. During the treatment period, it is important to avoid sexual activity and maintain a regular schedule.
