Patient's question:
A few days ago, I had a prostate fluid check, and the results are as follows:1. White blood cells: few/HP
2. pH value: 6.83
3. Leukocyte esterase (LLZ): ＋＋＋
Do I have prostatitis? Is it severe? How should I treat it? Thank you
Doctor's answer:
The treatment of prostatitis is best approached with a combination of Chinese and Western medicine. First, antibiotics should be used for 7-14 days, followed by Chinese medicine for consolidation therapy. The treatment of prostatitis requires a systematic and course-based approach to achieve a complete cure. During the treatment period, drink plenty of water, avoid prolonged sitting or riding, refrain from consuming foods, do not smoke or drink alcohol, and maintain a regular sexual life. It is recommended to seek treatment at a formal hospital. Additionally, using physical therapy can enhance the therapeutic effect. The method involves sitting in a basin with warm water for about 10 minutes.
