Patient's question:
At first, I had some frequent urination, but it wasn't severe. Because I had to go through a year of military training, I was timid and often didn't dare to go to the toilet. I held it in, going to the toilet once in the morning and once in the afternoon, each time for one to two hours. This lasted for more than two months. I went to get checked and was told it was mild non-bacterial prostatitis.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to treat the prostate first. This type of prostatitis often manifests as urinary discomfort, urine splitting, urination hesitation, frequent urination, a burning sensation and pain during urination that radiates to the head of the penis. There may be sticky secretions at the urethral opening in the morning, and a feeling of difficulty urinating can also occur. There may be a sense of fullness and discomfort in the posterior urethra, perineum, and anus, which worsens when squatting, having a bowel movement, or sitting on chairs or benches for a long time. Sexual dysfunction may also occur. It can be diagnosed by testing prostatic fluid. Western medicine treatment primarily involves antibiotics, while traditional Chinese medicine mainly uses oral Chinese herbal medicine. Sitz baths and prostate massage also have a certain effect on treating prostatitis. Pay attention to preventing colds in daily life. Drink more water and urinate more frequently. Relax more and avoid overexertion. Maintain regular sexual activity. Avoid sitting for long periods.
