Patient's question:
Is prostatis caused by Enterococcus faecalis contagious?How can the treatment be more effective, and what should be noted in daily life?
Dripping white during bowel movements, what type of prostatitis does it belong to?
Chronic or acute?
Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis caused by Enterococcus faecalis is rare, and Enterococcus faecalis is not highly contagious. I have encountered this bacterium a few times, and the first choice is vancomycin. But I'm not sure how it got onto the prostate—could it be due to sample contamination?
