Patient's question:
At that time, the symptoms included dysuria, urinary splitting, and leukorrhea. After a period of treatment, I felt the symptoms had improved and stopped the treatment because I was a student and didn't have much money.Doctor's answer:
Surgical treatment can be used for recurrent chronic bacterial prostatitis. Prostatectomy can achieve the goal of cure, but it should be used with caution. Since prostatitis usually affects the peripheral zone of the gland, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is difficult to achieve the goal of treatment. TURP can remove stones in the prostate and bacterial infection foci near the prostatic ducts, which is beneficial for reducing reinfection of the peripheral zone lesions. Chronic bacterial prostatitis can lead to recurrent urinary tract infections and infertility.
