Patient's question:
Hello doctor! I have a history of masturbation for 8 years. I don't know if I currently have prostatitis. Now, just by drinking a bit more water, I go to the bathroom frequently, but it's fine when I don't drink.Doctor's answer:
Hello, in such cases, it is important to be aware of the possibility of prostatitis. The main causes of prostatitis are the direct spread of urinary tract infections, hematogenous dissemination of infections from other parts of the body, and prostatic calculi. Additionally, various factors that cause prostatic congestion, such as excessive alcohol consumption, sexual stimulation, prolonged sitting, tight clothing, long-term, and perineal trauma, are also triggers for prostatitis. It is recommended that if you experience any of these discomforts, you should undergo relevant health examinations, such as a prostatic fluid routine test, and consider treatment based on the results.
