Patient's question:
Frequency of urination and urgency have been present for seven or eight years. In the past, there was masturbation, and recently there have been dreams at night. The duration of sexual activity has become short, and memory has deteriorated significantly. Three or four years ago, treatment was sought at the Fuzhou People's Armed Police Hospital, but it was ineffective. Subsequently, no further medical attention was sought, and no medication was taken. Additionally, there is a condition of excessive prepuce.Doctor's answer:
Your condition may be related to prostatitis, or it could be associated with unhealthy lifestyles such as prolonged sitting or poor urination habits.1. Over 96% of chronic prostatitis cases are non-bacterial, related to prostatic congestion and pelvic floor muscle spasms. Antibiotics are generally not recommended for treatment.
2. Prostatic fluid routine tests are subjective and are only used for reference during initial diagnosis. They are no longer used for diagnosis or evaluating treatment efficacy. The primary basis for diagnosis is clinical presentation, symptoms, and improvements in quality of life. The principle of treating prostatitis is primarily to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life. Focusing solely on prostatic fluid test results is highly incorrect and misleading. Clinical cure is achieved when symptoms improve and quality of life is enhanced.
3. Prostatitis does not have levels of severity, as it is merely a condition that affects quality of life and does not cause substantial harm to your health.
4. It is recommended to adjust your mindset, change your lifestyle, avoid prolonged sitting, drink more water, and abstain from alcohol.
5. Treatment must adhere to the principle of "regular hospitals and regular treatment."
6. It is advisable to consult a traditional Chinese medicine department at a large public general hospital when necessary, and consider treatment with traditional Chinese medicine.
