Can prostatitis heal itself?
Prostatitis can have a certain degree of self-healing capability. Generally, mild prostatitis can be managed by improving lifestyle habits, such as by increasing water intake, enhancing overall lifestyle habits, engaging in regular exercise, and maintaining controlled sexual activity, among others, which can all benefit the self-healing of the prostate. Additionally, when prostatitis occurs, it may be observed initially before considering medication. In cases of nonbacterial prostatitis, oral medication is generally not necessary; rather, treatments such as sitz baths can be used to achieve therapeutic goals. For bacterial prostatitis, it can generally be treated with anti-inflammatory medications to achieve some improvement. Of course, the best way to facilitate self-healing of prostatitis is by improving daily lifestyle habits. (Specific medications should be taken under the guidance of a physician.)
