How long does it take to treat prostatitis with medication?

Patient's question:

The doctor prescribed me medicine for ten days. After taking it, I feel much better. Now I still have the sensation of frequent urination. How long should I usually take the medicine in this case? Now the medicine is finished. Do I still need to focus on taking these three medications, or should I stop two of them?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is necessary to take medication for 1-2 months. Take three types of medicine attentively. It is recommended not to stop or reduce medication slightly when there is some improvement. Pay more attention to rest, and avoid spicy and stimulating foods. Smoking and alcohol are prohibited. Avoid standing or sitting for long periods, exercise more, and develop good lifestyle habits. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If not treated in time, it may affect the overall health condition. Therefore, patients should take medication according to their symptoms in a timely manner and pay more attention to self-care in daily life to avoid spicy foods.
