Patient's question:
Prostatitis has been a problem for a while. After taking eight boxes of Qian Mao Shu, I feel a bit better. The frequency and urgency of urination have decreased, but the amount of urine each time is still quite small, and I feel weak. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis often manifests as a chronic condition with a prolonged treatment duration and a tendency to recur repeatedly. In addition to taking oral medications for prostatitis, avoid drinking beer and consuming spicy foods, especially chili peppers. It is essential to drink plenty of water and maintain sufficient urine output, which helps flush the urethra. Perform cold compresses or sitz baths in the perineal area daily. For prostatitis patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications, whereas delayed treatment may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely symptomatic treatment and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life, avoiding prolonged sitting.
