Patient's question:
I have been experiencing chills and high fever recently; frequent urination, urgency, and anal fullness discomfort; I went to the hospital for tests including digital rectal examination and EPS original fluid examination. The results showed that I have acute prostatitis. I am worried that this will affect my future life, and I want to know how to treat this condition most effectively.Doctor's answer:
Hello, for patients with acute bacterial prostatitis accompanied by urinary retention, suprapubic cystostomy can be used to drain urine, or fine catheterization can be performed, but the indwelling catheter time should not exceed 12 hours. If an abscess is formed, fine-needle aspiration drainage guided by rectal ultrasound, transurethral incision of prostatic abscess drainage, or perineal puncture drainage can be adopted.
