Is prostatitis with 3 white blood cells serious?

Patient's question:

I went to pick up yesterday's checkup report today. It says prostatitis with 3+ white blood cells. Is it serious?

Doctor's answer:

If there are three white blood cells, it indicates that your prostatitis is relatively severe. It is recommended to first use some anti-inflammatory medications for treatment. Local administration can also be effective, such as applying some prostatitis-relieving ointment on the navel or administering anti-inflammatory drugs rectally, which can effectively alleviate symptoms of prostatitis. It is important to pay attention not to have frequent sexual activity, as this may otherwise worsen the symptoms of prostatitis.
