Chronic prostatitis


How long does it take for chronic prostatitis to heal in young people?
The recovery time for young people with chronic prostatitis is not fixed, as each patient's condition is different, and so are the treatment plans, resulting in varying recovery times. Generally, recovery can occur within 1 to 2 months. Patients should first visit the urology or andrology department of their local hospital for a systematic examination. Treatment should be based on the results of this examination, using sensitive antibiotics. Treatment can also be supplemented with some traditional Chinese medicines. Additionally, patients can take warm water sitz baths every night and regularly visit the hospital for prostate massages.


Which area is best for moxibustion for chronic prostatitis?
Patients with chronic prostatitis cannot effectively treat the condition solely through moxibustion. While it may help alleviate some symptoms of chronic prostatitis, treatment primarily requires timely medication to achieve a cure. It is recommended to undergo treatment under the guidance of a qualified physician to effectively improve the condition. It is also important to maintain hygiene, wash frequently, change clothes regularly, and prevent infections. Additionally, avoid staying up late, as it can worsen the condition.


Can chronic prostatitis lead to weak ejaculation?
Patients with chronic prostatitis, if left untreated for a long time, may experience weak ejaculation and a series of sexual dysfunctions, such as impotence and premature ejaculation. Therefore, patients with chronic prostatitis should seek timely systemic examination and treatment at local hospitals' urology or andrology departments. Prostatic fluid bacterial culture along with drug sensitivity tests should be conducted. Based on the results, the pathogen and the antibiotics it is sensitive to should be identified. Then, the selected sensitive antibiotics should be used for treatment. Patients must adhere to the treatment plan prescribed by their doctor, take medications on time and in the correct amounts, and regularly return to the hospital for follow-up evaluations.
