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 red and swollen. It might be inflammation. I was just about to ask, what medication is good for prostate inflammation?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is equivalent to the Chinese medicine condition of "ling bi," and its clinical diagnosis primarily manifests as an increasing frequency of urination, accompanied by either a decrease in urine volume or both. The main etiology in Chinese medicine is due to damp-heat accumulation or recurrent prostatic inflammation, which leads to redness and swelling of the prostate. In clinical treatment, oral administration of heat-clearing and damp-dispelling Chinese herbal medicines can be combined with local sitz baths or cold compresses, along with other symptomatic relief methods, to manage the condition.
