Patient's question:
I have had a year of frequent urination, urgent urination, and hesitancy! Weak urine flow!! Uncomfortable urethra, with secretions from the glans. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they found mild prostatic hyperplasia of the rectum and G-coccus in the general bacterial smear test. The doctor said it was prostatitis, urethritis, and glansitis.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.
