Patient's question:
AgeDetailed medical condition and purpose of consultation:
Generally, I have been in good health without any other adverse symptoms.
Five days ago, I experienced hematuria (blood in urine), which has occasionally recurred in recent days. Today, I was diagnosed with prostatitis at the municipal hospital and received two days of intravenous drip treatment, which was described as a "miracle drug." I’m unsure of its effectiveness. I will finish the treatment tomorrow.
My job involves management responsibilities, and I often have a lot of stress. I smoke and drink alcohol when attending social events. Sometimes I stay up late.
I feel my mental state is not as good as it was before the age of 35. My exercise volume has significantly decreased.

Doctor's answer:
In treatment, once a clinical diagnosis or blood and urine culture results are obtained, antibiotics should be administered first. Initially, antibiotics are given intravenously, and once the patient's fever and other symptoms improve, oral medications can be used. For acute bacterial prostatitis with urinary retention, suprapubic bladder puncture and drainage or catheterization can be employed. If an abscess forms, options include transrectal ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration drainage, transurethral incision for prostatic abscess drainage, or perineal puncture drainage. Additionally, patients should abstain from alcohol and avoid spicy, irritating foods; they should also avoid holding urine or sitting for long periods, pay attention to keeping warm, and increase physical exercise. As long as medication and care are combined, prostatitis will improve quickly.
