Is bacterial prostatitis first treated with anti-inflammatory therapy?

Patient's question:

It seems like the symptoms started about two years ago, which are the symptoms of chronic prostatitis. I think it is bacterial.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many causes of prostatitis, such as frequent sexual activity, forced interruption of intercourse, excessive masturbation, alcohol consumption, and microbial infections. Prostatitis is primarily characterized by varying degrees of urinary frequency, dysuria, nocturia, difficulty urinating, local pain, painful ejaculation, premature ejaculation, impotence, and mental symptoms. If prostatitis is not treated promptly, it may lead to other diseases or affect sexual function, and may even result in infertility. The prostate has a unique lipid capsule in its anatomical structure, which acts as a barrier to drugs, preventing them from reaching the affected area promptly. In the treatment of prostatitis, traditional Chinese medicine diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills can be taken, which have the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, diuretic, and promoting urination. Additionally, patients with prostatic diseases should pay attention to quitting smoking and avoiding alcohol consumption in daily life, maintaining a regular lifestyle, and strengthening exercise, which are beneficial for the recovery of the disease.
