Can people with prostatitis eat onions?

Patient's question:

I don't know why I got prostatitis at such a young age, which now causes me to frequently experience urgency and frequent urination. My wife is worried that my condition will worsen, so she restricts me from eating this and that. Now, even onions are off-limits for me. I would like to ask you, Doctor, can someone with prostatitis eat onions?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your description, it seems that prostatitis can lead to tissue and mucosal swelling, which in turn pushes against the urethra, causing symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination. You should pay attention to personal hygiene, diet, and daily routines. Avoid foods that are highly irritating. You can consume a very small amount of onions. The main approach should be to determine the sensitive antibiotics and tonifying kidney yin medications based on the pathogenic bacteria, and then implement symptomatic treatment.
