Patient's question:
My husband recently mentioned that he has been experiencing severe pain during urination. He said there hasn't been any recurrence of redness, swelling, or inflammation. It's just occasional pain during urination, and the pain can even return while he's sitting. Yesterday, I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said he has prostatitis and needs to pay attention to personal hygiene. How should prostatitis be treated?Doctor's answer:
If the problem of prostate pain reoccurs, it is likely directly related to having prostatitis. Long-term dietary irritation, prolonged sitting, and staying up late are lifestyles that make it easier to experience this again. It is advisable to promptly visit a hospital for a routine prostatic fluid examination and a detailed prostate ultrasound to further clarify the issue. If significant infection-related problems reappear, it is necessary to take anti-inflammatory medication orally for treatment in a timely manner.
