Patient's question:
I am a foreman on a construction site, and I am usually busy with training, so I rarely take care of my health. Recently, I have been experiencing itching and pain in my prostate, and it feels swollen and red. It might be inflammation. I was just about to ask, what medicine is good for prostate inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is equivalent to the Chinese medicine condition known as "ling bi," and its clinical diagnosis primarily manifests as an increasing frequency of urination, along with the phenomenon of reduced urine volume or accompanying it. The main etiology in Chinese medicine is due to damp-heat accumulation or recurrent inflammation of the prostate, which leads to redness and swelling of the prostate. In clinical diagnosis, treatment can be implemented through oral administration of many heat-clearing and damp-dispelling Chinese herbal medicines, along with local sitz baths or cold compresses, as well as other relief methods to alleviate symptoms.
