Can prostatitis be treated?

Patient's question:

Can prostatitis be cured? Will it affect the ability to have children? I work in Pudong New Area. Hello, which hospital should I go to for a urological examination?

Doctor's answer:

Prostatitis can be divided into two types: acute and chronic. Acute prostatitis is primarily characterized by a sense of fullness and discomfort in the perineum, with more pronounced dull pain in the lower abdomen. It can radiate to the lumbar-sacral region, penis, and inner thighs. Symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, dysuria, or hematuria may also reappear. The onset is relatively sudden. Chronic prostatitis is mainly characterized by urinary frequency, a feeling of incomplete urination, urethral burning, and pain. The pain is often a dull ache or cramping, radiating to the glans penis and perineum, accompanied by discomfort in the suprapubic region and lumbar-sacral area. Treatment involves selecting medications with high sensitivity to bacteria. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with prostatitis should maintain proper dietary habits in daily life to digest nutrients well. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
