Patient's question:
Patient is male, 74 years old. He experiences intermittent swelling and pain from the anus to the penis, similar to an erection, with a sensation of gas inside. The pain is unbearable, and only by repeatedly rubbing and massaging with hands can it be relieved. This happens several times a day, without a regular pattern. Various painkillers have shown no significant effect.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you check the prostate ultrasound and serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to rule out prostate-related diseases. Regular prostate massage and taking the prostatic massage fluid to check EPS routine can be tried. You may also consider taking quinolone antibiotics or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (such as Indomethacin tablets or Brufen).
