Is the burning sensation and stinging pain at the glans head related to prostatitis?

Patient's question:

During the illness, UU and CT tests were performed, both of which were negative. The results of the color Doppler ultrasound are as follows:
Sonographic findings: The size and shape of both kidneys are normal, with intact capsules, and no separation is observed in the renal collecting systems.
CDFI shows no abnormal blood flow, and both ureters show no dilation.
The bladder is not well-filled, with a smooth inner wall, and no abnormal echoes were detected.
Prostate size: 2.83.72.6 CM, with smooth margins, heterogeneous echoes, and visible punctate strong echoes, with a diameter of 0.3 CM.
CDFI shows no abnormal blood flow.
Ultrasound suggests: Prostate strong echoes, considered to be stones or calcifications.
No significant abnormalities were observed in the bilateral kidneys, ureters, or bladder.
I visited the specialist outpatient clinic of the city People's Hospital every week, and the medications prescribed three times are as follows:
First prescription: Cefixime tablets, Prostate Detoxification Capsules, Ningmiantai Capsules
Second prescription: Cefdinir capsules, Levofloxacin tablets, Ningmiantai Capsules, Vitamin C
Third prescription: Erythromycin enteric-coated capsules, Prostate Detoxification Capsules

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be balanitis, which refers to the inflammation of the glans mucosa. This condition can be caused by various pathogens, local irritation, and other factors. Balanoposthitis refers to the inflammation of the inner foreskin and the glans penis. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is related to damp-heat accumulation in the lower jiao and liver channel damp-heat. It can be treated with Longdan Xiegan Decoction or with a decoction of Sophora flavescens for fumigation and washing.
