Patient's question:
When I was a child, I had a habit of masturbation and often restrained ejaculation with my hands. Later, I was diagnosed with prostatitis after a medical examination. If the prostatitis is caused by inhibiting ejaculation, how difficult is it to treat? What kind of examination should be done? Please answer from those with professional knowledge! Thank you very much! First question supplement: What kind of examination should be done?Doctor's answer:
From your description, it seems that you mean there is no other possibility of infection, which can be treated with traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese herbal medicine.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 a white discharge from the urethra, accompanied by symptoms such as lower back pain, weakness in the knees, impotence, premature ejaculation, or even hematuria (blood in urine) or hematospermia (blood in semen). In traditional Chinese medicine, it falls under the categories of "hot-dampness obstruction," "lao-lin," and "jīng zhuó."
It is divided into:
- "Damp-heat obstruction syndrome"
- "Yin deficiency with fire flaring syndrome"
- "Kidney yang deficiency syndrome"
- "Qi and blood stagnation syndrome," etc.
However, traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment. You can visit a local traditional Chinese medicine hospital, combine clinical observations, and use the four diagnostic methods (inspection, auscultation/olfaction, inquiry, and palpation) to prescribe the right medicine for your condition, which will lead to recovery. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Self-treatment plan:
1. Massage along both sides of the urethra for 15–20 minutes every day, with intensity adjusted to your comfort level.
2. Perform anal contraction exercises while standing, 50–100 times in the morning and before going to bed at night, until you feel a sense of warmth and slight soreness in the anus.
3. In the summer, use a damp towel to apply cold compresses to the testicles, 2–3 times a night, until the testicles contract fully.
4. Completely relax your mental stress.
5. Engage in morning exercises every day, such as jogging for 10–15 minutes, until you sweat slightly.
6. In the morning, press your hands against your lower back to stimulate kidney blood circulation. The best range is 100–1,500 times.
