Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I felt a burning sensation in the perineum about 2 months ago and went to the hospital for a routine prostate examination. The doctor said that the size and texture of my prostate were normal, and there were no white blood cells! However, later I felt pain in the perineum, accompanied by pain during urination. When I went to the hospital again for a check-up, they did not take prostate fluid. The doctor prescribed some traditional Chinese medicine and anti-inflammatory drugs (clarithromycin) for me. After taking them for a period of time, there was still no improvement. Later, I started experiencing a constant feeling of fullness in the rectum and pain in the perineum! Now it's better or worse, sometimes comfortable, and sometimes uncomfortable. Should I continue taking anti-inflammatory drugs, or what should I do!?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is likely caused by a urinary tract infection. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a urinalysis and treatment. It is suggested to take Sanjin tablets and levofloxacin orally. At the same time, drink more water and avoid spicy and irritating foods such as leeks, scallions, garlic, pepper, and ginger. Avoid foods that are warm in nature, such as mutton, dog meat, rabbit meat, as well as greasy foods, to prevent inflammation from worsening. Avoid the irritation of smoking and alcohol. During the illness, it is best to avoid sexual activity to reduce congestion in the urinary and reproductive tracts and prevent mutual infection.
