Patient's question:
I have been frequently urinating recently, and I often feel like I can't empty my bladder completely. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said I have non-infectious prostatitis. I don't understand what this professional term means, but I just know that as long as it doesn't cause suffering, it's okay. What is non-infectious prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
This condition may be related to your daily habits, such as frequent holding of urine. Over time, it can easily lead to prostatitis, and in severe cases, it may result in prostatic hyperplasia and hypertrophy. You can use a hot pack to apply cold compresses to the lower abdomen and prostate area daily. When you feel the urge to urinate, make sure to empty your bladder promptly. At the same time, drink plenty of warm boiled water. If the symptoms are still quite noticeable, it is recommended to consult a doctor at the hospital and take some medication.
