Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I felt unwell recently and had constant pain in my lower abdomen. My limbs had varying degrees of swelling and pain, and my urine output was also less than usual. After a thorough examination at the hospital, the result was prostatitis. I would like to consult about it. What are the good treatments for abnormal PSA (prostate-specific antigen)?Doctor's answer:
According to your current condition, if the problem of prostatitis reoccurs, it may also lead to a significant increase in prostate-specific antigen (PSA). If the PSA level rises significantly again after several episodes, it may be necessary to promptly rule out the possibility of a prostatic space-occupying inflammatory issue. In necessary cases, oral antibiotics can be considered, and regular follow-up tests for PSA should be conducted.
