Patient's question:
Always uncomfortable, feeling bad, can't sleep. Will prostatitis be contagious?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis itself is not contagious. If prostatitis is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, it is contagious. Prostatitis has two types: aseptic prostatitis and bacterial prostatitis. Normal prostatitis is not contagious and there is no need to worry. If it is aseptic prostatitis, do not take antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs. If it is gonococcal prostatitis, you must take antibiotics such as azithromycin. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
