Patient's question:
Uncle got prostatitis, pelvic and sacral pain. He still eats some fried foods and doesn't listen to what anyone says. I've lived with him for a long time, and I also feel like I might have the same condition. Could I have prostatitis? I want to ask an expert if prostatitis is contagious.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to help you. Based on your description, I can understand. Generally, prostatitis is not infectious, and it also does not have generational inheritance. Usually, prostatitis is caused by bacterial infection of the prostate, leading to prostate diseases. However, if you don't go to the hospital, it can be quite difficult to treat it, as the drug concentration finds it hard to reach the focus of the prostate. Regulating physical and mental health, maintaining personal hygiene, and avoiding bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity are important.
