Patient's question:
Today, while working at the office, I kept feeling the urge to go to the bathroom and ran there several times. I thought it was because I drank too much tea. But when I went to the bathroom, I only managed to urinate a few drops. After returning to my office, I felt the urge again after a while. It was such a day that I couldn't be productive at all. Do I have prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Your current symptoms include frequent urination, and prostatitis may potentially cause recurrent frequent urination symptoms. Of course, it could also be due to overactive bladder syndrome. If these symptoms recur repeatedly, it is recommended to visit a hospital for a thorough examination of urinalysis and urological ultrasound to clarify the issue. If the examination indicates inflammation, you can take oral cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment. If the above examinations are normal, then overactive bladder syndrome should be considered. In this case, you can take Tolterodine extended-release tablets to stabilize bladder function.
