Patient's question:
I have a male friend who hasn't come to work for over ten days. It is said that he is being treated for prostatitis in the hospital. In the past, I also heard that some men got urethritis, but I can't distinguish the differences between these two diseases. So, I want to ask what the difference is between prostatitis and urethritis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis and urethritis have certain differences. If it is prostatitis, there may be a low urination point again. Urethritis may cause frequent urination and dysuria, and prostatitis can also cause frequent urination and dysuria. At this time, you can go to the hospital for relevant examination reports to diagnose or rule out the condition. If it is fungal prostatitis, oral anti-inflammatory drugs need to be taken in conjunction with oral traditional Chinese medicine treatment, which will be more effective.
