Patient's question:
Over the past few months, I've been experiencing frequent urination and incomplete urination. I've taken many medications, but they haven't been very effective. I had thorough tests for prostatic fluid, color Doppler ultrasound, and urinalysis, but nothing significant was found. The doctor at the hospital said I have mild prostatitis. Now, I feel slightly better, but the symptoms still persist. I've been taking traditional Chinese medicine for three days now, and even when I drink a bit of water, I still urinate a lot. After finishing a bowel movement and standing up, I always feel the urge to urinate, and sometimes I even leak a bit while having a bowel movement. Can traditional Chinese medicine help regulate this condition?Doctor's answer:
In your case, the frequent urination is likely caused by prostatitis. First, you should actively seek further treatment for prostatitis at a regular hospital's urology department. Second, you should pay attention to reducing the intake of spicy foods, getting adequate rest, and improving nutrition. In daily life, drink more water, avoid prolonged sitting, and pay attention to exercise. In addition to treating urological conditions, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a pleasant mood to enhance their physical condition and speed up the recovery process.
