Am I suffering from chronic prostatitis?

Age 27. A few days ago, a thorough examination revealed positive Mycoplasma infection. White blood cells: 3. The doctor asked me to have a rectal examination for a week.

Doctor's answer:

Prostatitis is often caused by bacterial downward transmission and can be classified as acute or chronic. Chronic prostatitis is mainly transmitted retrogradely through the urethra. It is recommended to seek treatment as soon as possible. Additionally, it is advisable to quit smoking and drinking alcohol, as well as avoiding spicy foods. Engaging in regular sexual activity, weekly prostate massage, physical therapy, and warm Sitz baths can all help alleviate symptoms. Your doctor has told you that your methods are also good, so you can try them. It is essential to actively seek treatment and wish you a speedy recovery.
