Chronic prostatitis urinary tract infection?

Patient's question:

Patient is male, 24 years old. In July 2008, he went to the hospital for a follow-up visit and was diagnosed with prostatitis. Later, when symptoms occurred, he intermittently received treatment. In November 2011, symptoms reappeared (possibly due to frequent sexual activity and overwork). Symptoms include lower back pain, testicular swelling and pain, and frequent urination.

Doctor's answer:

Urinary tract infection (UTI) refers to the growth and adaptation of pathogens within the urinary tract of the body, leading to inflammation of the urinary tract mucosa or. Bacteria are the most common pathogens, while fungi, viruses, parasites, and others can also cause infections.
Recommendations:
1. Use antibiotics that are sensitive to the urinary tract for combined treatment.
2. Drink plenty of water, clean the urethra and bladder.
3. The treatment duration is 2 weeks. After symptoms subside, focus on anti-inflammatory treatment for another 2 weeks to prevent recurrence.
If the sexual partner has issues, they should be treated simultaneously to avoid cross-infection. If there are gynecological infections, timely treatment should be administered to prevent cross-contamination.
