Patient's question:

Microscopic examination: WBC 5-8
Microscopic examination: RBC 0

Now I feel very anxious. The medication seems to have little effect.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: The main symptoms of prostatitis are: frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, perineal pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, perineum, and testicular area. There is often a white discharge in the urethra, accompanied by lower back pain, impotence, premature ejaculation, and even hematuria or hematospermia. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it falls under the categories of "heat-dampness obstruction," "lumbago with dampness," and "cloudy semen." It is divided into conditions such as:- Heat-dampness obstruction
- Yin deficiency with fire flaring up
- Insufficient kidney yang
- Stagnation of qi and blood
However, TCM emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment. You should consult a local traditional Chinese medicine hospital, combining clinical observations (the four diagnostic methods) to prescribe the right medication for your specific condition, which will lead to a cure. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Self-treatment plan:
1. Massage along both sides of the urethra for 15-20 minutes daily, with intensity adjusted to your comfort level.
2. Perform anal contraction exercises while standing, 50-100 times each time, in the morning and before bed, until you feel aching or warmth in the anus.
3. In summer, use a damp towel to apply cold compresses to the testicles, 2-3 times a night, until the testicles contract fully.
4. Completely relax your mental stress.
5. Engage in morning exercises, such as jogging for 10-15 minutes, until you sweat slightly.
6. In the morning, press your hands against your waist to stimulate kidney blood circulation, ideally 100-1500 times.
