Patient's question:
Patient Gender: I am 39 years old. I have been experiencing lower back pain for about a year, intermittent in nature. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it. Recently, for over a month, I have also felt aching in the right testicle and right lower abdomen. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said my prostate is slightly enlarged, with a transverse diameter of 42, longitudinal diameter of 26, and anteroposterior diameter of 27. The ultrasound showed that the prostate echo is still relatively uniform and no obvious mass was found.My questions are:
1. Prostate problems are often associated with older age. Since I am at this age and have this condition, is it a sign of early aging?
2. The size of my prostate is 422627. Is it significantly larger than the normal size?
Doctor's answer:
Sir, please don't hurry. If you treat this illness correctly, it will be resolved quickly. As you mentioned, the medicine can be taken.Actually, within the first three days of the illness, using some Western medicine drips can control it within a maximum of seven days.
But you said it has been more than a month. As long as you don’t have mental stress and receive treatment in a regular hospital, there is nothing to worry about. However, I think using traditional Chinese medicine is better.
Here is a prescription for you:
10 grams of Cortex Fraxini, 15 grams of Radix Angelicae Sinensis, 10 grams of Fructus Aurantii, 15 grams of Paeoniae Radix Alba, 10 grams of Sparganii Rhizoma, 10 grams of Curcumae Rhizoma, 15 grams of Astragali Radix, 10 grams of Ligustici Rhizoma, 20 grams of Lycii Fructus, 20 grams of Achyranthis Rhizoma, 20 grams of Bai Zhi Tan, 20 grams of Pogostemonis Herba, 15 grams of Scutellariae Radix, 15 grams of Poria,
Take one dose per day. After five doses, you can go for a check-up. One dose costs no more than 15 yuan, and you can buy it from a reputable pharmacy.
You can take the traditional Chinese medicine alone or add auxiliary oxygen. For other treatments, there is no need.
Take the traditional Chinese medicine before meals with warm water, and take Western medicine after meals. Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol, and reduce smoking. You can eat spicy food, but avoid dry and spicy dishes.
If you have a poor stomach, you can eat some hawthorn slices or drink it after meals. It must be taken warm.
