Patient's question:
Doctor: Hello!I am 50 years old, male. I have had chronic prostatitis for more than 10 years. About 7 years ago, one morning after sexual activity with my wife, I had bright red blood in my urine. After being hospitalized for half a month and undergoing various tests, no specific problem was found. When I was discharged, my urination had returned to normal, but I left with a question mark. In 2004, one morning when I got up, I had bright red blood in my urine again, just like the day 7 years ago, but this time there had been no sexual activity. However, no problem was found after examination. On January 11 of this year, I had blood in my urine again when I got up in the morning. The condition first involved difficulty urinating, and after straining, the urine turned from bright red to normal.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: This is the symptom of prostatitis. Actively treat it. The main symptoms of prostatitis are: frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, perineal pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, perineum, and testicular area. There is often white discharge in the urethra, accompanied by lower back pain, limpness, premature ejaculation, and even hematuria or hematospermia. In traditional Chinese medicine, it falls under the categories of "hot dampness in the lower burner," "exhaustion dampness," and "cloudy sperm." It is divided into conditions such as "heat and dampness obstruction," "yin deficiency with fire," "insufficient kidney yang," and "blood and qi stagnation."However, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment. You can go to a local traditional Chinese medicine hospital, combine clinical observations, and use the four diagnostic methods to prescribe the right medicine for the condition, which can then effectively treat the illness. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Self-treatment plan:
1. Massage the sides of the urethra for 15-20 minutes each day, with intensity adjusted to your comfort level.
2. Perform anal contraction exercises while standing, 50-100 times in the morning and evening before bed, until you feel aching and warmth in the anus.
3. In summer, use a damp towel to cold compress the testicles, 2-3 times per night, until the testicles contract fully.
4. Completely relax your mental stress.
5. Engage in morning exercises, such as jogging for 10-15 minutes, until you sweat slightly.
6. In the morning, press your hands against your waist to stimulate kidney blood circulation, ideally 100-1500 times.
