Patient's question:
Frequency of urination, urgency of urination, weak urine flow, yellow urine, sometimes urine splitting, perineal pain, penis not working effectively, straining at the perineum. Decreased libido, and it only takes 2-3 minutes to finish each time.Doctor's answer:
Surgical treatment can be used for recurrent chronic bacterial prostatitis. Prostatectomy can achieve the goal of cure, but it should be used with caution. Since prostatitis usually affects the peripheral zone of the gland, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is difficult to achieve the goal of treatment. TURP can remove stones in the prostate and bacterial infection foci near the prostatic ducts, which is beneficial for reducing reinfection of the peripheral zone lesions. Chronic bacterial prostatitis can lead to recurrent urinary tract infections and infertility.
