I have a slight stinging sensation in my urethra. Is this prostatitis?

Patient's question:

...a bit of discomfort in the urethra recently, I felt a slight stinging sensation. In the morning, there were white spots in my underwear, and squeezing the base of my penis would release one or two drops of white fluid. However, in the past few days, the white spots on my underwear have reduced from a dozen to just two or three. After a few more days, I noticed some swelling at the base of my penis. I heard that prostatitis can cause infertility...

Doctor's answer:

First, you should consider a urinary tract infection. It is recommended that you go to a formal hospital for a urinalysis and urine culture, as well as a color Doppler ultrasound of the urinary system. Using medication based on the results of drug sensitivity testing is relatively effective. You should pay attention to rest, drink more water, and maintain good hygiene, especially cleaning before and after sexual activity. Further examination in a formal hospital and medication based on the examination results will yield better outcomes. If you do not get tested, you can try taking Cefixime capsules plus Ciprofloxacin for 7 days, combined with some Jin Yinqiao Granules to see how effective it is. If the results are not satisfactory, it is recommended to stop taking the medication for 7 days and then have a urine culture test at a formal hospital. Wishing you good health.
