Patient's question:
I've been experiencing painful urination. After examination, it was diagnosed as prostatitis. The medication hasn't been effective, so the doctor prescribed medication for treatment. I'm asking if severe prostatitis requires surgical treatment?Doctor's answer:
Hello, for prostatitis, it's best to get checked at a local top-tier hospital. Chronic prostatitis is not easy to cure and tends to recur very easily, especially after drinking alcohol or with irregular sexual activity, as well as during colds.It's recommended to combine traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatments. For example, a combination of treatments like Shengmingyidan (a traditional Chinese medicine) and antibiotics can be effective. You can find a treatment that combines traditional Chinese medicine with antibiotics, as this approach makes it less likely for prostatitis to recur. After treatment, you need to pay attention to your lifestyle. Treating the disease is easy, but preventing recurrence is not.
