What is the probability of urethritis infection becoming prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am 35 years old this year and my physical condition has not been very good recently. There is a problem that has been troubling me, and I am very distressed. I would like to consult you. Hello, what is the probability of urethritis transmitting to prostatitis? I especially need your clarification and explanation. Thank you urgently.

Doctor's answer:

Frequent recurrent urethritis can also lead to the recurrence of prostatitis. Therefore, once urethritis is diagnosed, active treatment should be implemented to prevent it from developing into chronic urethritis or even prostatitis. During the acute phase, oral antibiotics can be taken consistently. After the symptoms significantly improve, oral traditional Chinese medicine should be continued for a period to consolidate the therapeutic effects. It is important to pay attention to rest, drink plenty of water, avoid spicy foods, and maintain good personal hygiene.
