Patient's question:
My father-in-law has been experiencing frequent urination and urgency. Sometimes, even when he hasn't drunk much water at night, he frequently urinates during sleep. I'm worried he might have prostatitis, so I want to take him to the hospital for a thorough examination. Since we live here, I'd like to ask which hospitals are good for checking prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis can easily lead to symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, and difficulty urinating. There are bacterial and non-bacterial prostatitis. Regular public hospitals' urology departments can treat it, with the best option being a Class III-A hospital. It's better to avoid private hospitals. Additionally, antibiotics can be taken to reduce inflammation and clear heat and detoxify. Drinking plenty of warm water is recommended during this period, and it's best to avoid beer and spicy foods to prevent irritation and hinder complete recovery.
