Patient's question:
Ultrasound diagnosis indicates prostatitis. Apart from occasional incomplete urination and mild swelling in the perineum, there are no other significant symptoms, and a urinalysis is normal. As I am unwilling to take medication, I would like to ask the experts: Are there any non-pharmacological therapies available, such as dietary changes, appropriate exercises, etc.?Doctor's answer:
The prostate is a special organ made of tissue. It is surrounded by a hard lipid membrane on the outside, which acts as a drug barrier, making it difficult for drugs to penetrate to the affected area of the prostate. medication alone is not very effective, so a combination of physical therapy and medication is required. Due to the difficulty in achieving effective concentrations of antibiotics in the prostate with systemic medication, a treatment method of directly injecting antibiotics into the prostate has emerged. The specific method involves selecting gentamicin, kanamycin, or cephalosporin, used alone or in combination, and directly injecting them into the prostate area through the perineum, or directly injecting the medication into the prostate lesion under ultrasound guidance, once or twice a week, with 10 sessions constituting one course of treatment.
