Patient's question:
I was diagnosed with chronic bacterial prostatitis. He recommended shortwave therapy combined with intravenous fluids. Although there has been some improvement, it's very expensive. Currently, I am taking Amoxicillin and Qingre Jiedu Pian (Herbal Formula for Clearing Heat and Detoxifying). However, I now have sperm liquefaction issues again. I'm very scared to hear that using antibiotics and other treatments can be quite effective. Can my condition still be cured? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, prostatitis requires early treatment to avoid affecting sexual function decline and semen quality, leading to infertility. Chronic prostatitis does not heal on its own. The treatment of prostatitis is very important, and it is necessary to identify the cause, combine medication and physical therapy, ensure adequate dosage, and maintain a sufficient course of treatment. Additionally, post-treatment care to prevent recurrence is even more important. After recovery, it is advisable to reduce the intake of spicy foods, pay attention to warmth, moderate sexual desire, avoid prolonged sitting, prevent overexertion, and engage in appropriate exercise. These are all conditions for preventing recurrence.
