Patient's question:
The symptoms are dysuria, discomfort in the perineum, scrotal swelling, and incomplete urination. The test results show 1 white blood cell and 2 phospholipid bodies. The doctor prescribed Levofloxacin Hydrochloride Capsules and Longqing Capsules. Hello, is it bacterial prostatitis if there are 1+ white blood cells? If so, is Levofloxacin effective?Doctor's answer:
The condition cannot be diagnosed as aseptic prostatitis solely based on the number of white blood cells. Strictly speaking, it should be considered aseptic prostatitis only if bacterial culture is performed multiple times and no bacteria are cultivated.Medical advice: If it is truly aseptic, antibiotic treatment will be ineffective. Currently, since it is uncertain whether it is bacterial or not, you can first try a course of antibiotics to see if it is effective. The best approach is to undergo bacterial culture testing. You should temporarily avoid cold foods, greasy foods, smoking, and spicy foods.
