Patient's question:
I have been experiencing frequent painful urination recently. After a check-up, it was found that I have prostatitis. I would like to ask how to treat prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis, it is recommended to use antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment. Short-term use of α-receptor blockers (e.g., Durect) can also be considered. Quit smoking and alcohol, avoid spicy foods, refrain from sexual intercourse, and prevent excessive frequency of sexual activity. Avoid local cold stimuli. At the same time, physical therapy can enhance the therapeutic effect, with methods such as sitting in a basin (soak in warm water for about 10 minutes). The daily treatment for prostatitis patients mainly focuses on symptomatic treatment. Patients can take oral medications, supplement with vitamins, and pay attention to self-care, maintain a proper diet, and avoid cold foods. It is hoped that prostatitis patients can recover as soon as possible.
