Patient's question:
I have had prostatitis for several years. Before, it was just frequent urination and urgency, but recently for the past two months, I've been feeling discomfort at the base of the penis, even some pain, and sometimes a sensation of heaviness. I just want to rub it with my hands. How is the treatment for prostatitis and discomfort at the base of the penis?Doctor's answer:
The base of the penis has again appeared with uncomfortable symptoms, mainly due to local inflammation, folliculitis, or lymphadenitis in daily life. In addition, diseases such as prostatitis can also cause it. At this point, you can usually take many broad-spectrum antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs orally, such as Compound Sulfa Tablets, Pulegan Capsules, Ping Capsules, or Qian Mao Hui Chun Capsules, combined with traditional Chinese medicine for treatment. Generally, oral medication for about 7 to 15 days, and after the symptoms are completely restored, it is timely to go to the local hospital for reexamination.
