Patient's question:
Sometimes the dysuria has persisted for several years, and now it has reappeared with urine splitting. Additionally, the urine is slightly cloudy. Knowing that his roommate has prostatitis, he has been avoiding medication, but now it has become severe. He wants to take some anti-inflammatory medication. What anti-inflammatory drugs are recommended for inflamed prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis inflammation can lead to symptoms such as urine splitting, and it can also cause cloudy urine. It is necessary to promptly perform a urinalysis to identify the type of pathogen. If it is caused by E. coli, quinolone antibiotics are generally effective. Levofloxacin or norfloxacin is recommended for treatment. If the prostatitis is not caused by a bacterial infection, non-bacterial prostatitis cannot be treated with oral antibiotics.
