Patient's question:
The main symptom is frequent urination, occasionally with a sensation of rectal fullness. Mostly, it's just frequent urination during the day, not at night. !Doctor's answer:
First, you need to go to a large hospital, preferably a Grade III-A hospital, to confirm whether it is prostatitis. Because you shouldn't just listen to the radio or read newspapers and think, "I have prostatitis, what should I do!"Second, after seeing a doctor, based on your type, some cases can be treated with medication, while others may even be relieved through lifestyle adjustments. Most patients require a comprehensive treatment approach, especially a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, which tends to be more effective. For non-bacterial and non-inflammatory prostatitis, traditional Chinese medicine treatment may be particularly beneficial. Therefore, it is crucial to seek proper treatment at a reputable hospital and strictly follow these guidelines:
1. Reduce mental and work stress.
2. Avoid alcohol or drink it in moderation, and eat fewer spicy and irritating foods.
3. Reduce intake of greasy foods and unsaturated fatty acids.
4. Identify and eliminate triggers, engage in regular exercise, avoid prolonged sitting or long-distance cycling.
5. Prevent pathogens from infecting the prostate through various means.
6. Eat more vegetables and fruits rich in lycopene.
7. Regular check-ups and self-monitoring are equally important.
