Patient's question:
My husband went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was diagnosed with prostatitis. We have cephalosporin medicine at home. Can cephalosporin treat prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
The patient has prostatitis and can take oral cephalexin. Prostatitis is divided into bacterial and non-bacterial types, which can cause symptoms such as frequent urination, urgent urination, pelvic and sacral pain, and sexual dysfunction. Color Doppler ultrasound examination and secretion sampling for testing can be performed. Currently, oral medication and warm water sitz baths are recommended. While taking medication, it is important to drink more water and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
