Patient's question:
For some reason, I've been experiencing severe pain during urination lately, and my urination has been quite frequent. Recently, I've noticed that my sexual performance with my wife has been affected, and I've also developed symptoms of premature ejaculation. It's really frustrating. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said that the symptoms are caused by prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
Hello, a prostate fluid examination reveals more than 10 white blood cells per high-power field under the microscope, and a reduction in lecithin corpuscles, which can be diagnosed as prostatitis. It is recommended to seek medical examination and treatment at a formal hospital. If a bacterial culture is performed simultaneously, it can provide a clear diagnosis and classification of chronic prostatitis. If the bacterial culture result of the prostatic fluid is positive, it is diagnosed as chronic bacterial prostatitis; conversely, it is diagnosed as chronic non-bacterial prostatitis. It is recommended to consume more foods that clear heat, generate fluids, nourish yin, and moisten the lungs, such as lily bulbs, glutinous rice, honey, peanuts, fresh yam, white fungus, pears, red dates, lotus seeds, and sugarcane. These are nourishing and moisturizing foods. You can also eat more seafood, sea cucumbers, sesame seeds, and walnuts, which nourish yin and replenish the kidneys.
