Patient's question:
Acute prostatitis, how much does the treatment cost?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis treatment often lasts for a long time, at least requiring adherence to treatment for 2~3 months. Some patients feel better and stop taking medication, leading to recurrent episodes. Your condition is relatively mild, and treatment with traditional Chinese medicine alone is sufficient. Avoid long-term use of Western medicine, which can cause damage to the liver and kidneys. Take traditional Chinese medicine with functions such as clearing heat, detoxifying, promoting diuresis, and relieving stranguria. Examples include Yinhuai Muyanlin tablets, which contain ingredients like honeysuckle and plantain that have a significant inhibitory effect on common pathogens causing prostatitis. Other ingredients like Scutellariae Radix not only have antibacterial and diuretic effects but also help resolve blood stasis and alleviate pain. They can also dilate blood vessels, improve blood circulation around the affected area, facilitate rapid drug action on the lesion and surrounding tissues, and quickly relieve symptoms. A 15-day course is recommended, and it is advisable to use three consecutive courses.
