Patient's question:
I've been abstaining from masturbation for 17 days now. After dreaming about it once on the 12th day, there were no symptoms, but today on the 17th day, I experienced a slight pain in the ureter area after urinating. Is it possible that it's a severe case of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Considering the current recurring situation, varicocele should not be ruled out. In this case, it is recommended to promptly visit the urology department of a hospital for a detailed examination and diagnosis of the scrotum and inguinal region via color Doppler ultrasound. If the diagnosis confirms varicocele, surgical treatment is advised. Wet dreams can be cured, but the treatment period is generally long, and there is a high risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medications should be used according to symptoms. Additionally, patients should maintain a light diet, avoid foods, and refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol.
