Prostatitis, it is recommended to use antibiotics for anti-inflammatory treatment. Short-term use of α-receptor blockers (e.g., Durect) may be considered. Quit smoking and alcohol. Avoid spicy foods. Refrain from sexual intercourse and avoid excessive sexual frequency. Prevent local cold stimuli. At the same time, physical therapy can enhance the therapeutic effect, with methods such as sitz baths (soak in warm water for about 10 minutes).
