Patient's question:
Doctor, I've been feeling lower abdominal heaviness and bloating recently, and sometimes my lower body also hurts. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said I have prostatitis. He prescribed some Western medicine for me, but it didn't work at all. Someone recommended using traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. I want to know if traditional Chinese medicine can completely cure prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
If a man experiences persistent lower abdominal fullness and swelling, it is indeed related to prostate diseases. Therefore, it is essential to thoroughly examine to determine the exact cause. Only in this way can the appropriate treatment be confirmed. While traditional Chinese medicine and herbal remedies have fewer side effects, they are still not beneficial for overall health and complete recovery.Although the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine is slower, it may not completely cure the condition. It is important to drink more water, urinate frequently, avoid prolonged sitting, and not hold in urine. During acute symptoms, Western medicine is still recommended for treatment and management.
