Patients with chronic prostatitis can eat beef, as it does not aggravate the symptoms of chronic prostatitis or affect its treatment. Patients with chronic prostatitis should mainly avoid spicy and irritating foods, alcohol, and should not hold in urine or sit for long periods. They should also avoid long durations of cycling, motorcycling, or horseback riding. In daily life, they should focus on a light and easily digestible diet, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and drink plenty of warm plain water.

Can one have sexual intercourse while taking medication for chronic prostatitis?

Patients with chronic prostatitis can still engage in sexual activities while on medication. Appropriate sexual activity can be beneficial for the treatment of chronic prostatitis, helping to improve discomfort symptoms. However, sexual activities should not be too frequent. Excessive sexual activity or frequent masturbation can lead to excessive congestion of the prostate gland, worsening the symptoms of chronic prostatitis. Therefore, patients should maintain a regular and moderate sexual life during the medication period.

Can I occasionally drink a bottle of red wine with chronic prostatitis?

Patients with chronic prostatitis should not drink red wine. Chronic prostatitis has a long course of disease, mainly characterized by frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination. After urinating, a small amount of white secretion may drip out. Patients may also experience discomfort or pain in the pubic or perineal area. In some severe cases, there might be a decline in sexual function, manifesting as erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation. Patients with chronic prostatitis generally need to use anti-inflammatory drugs that have a strong ability to penetrate the prostatic capsule, such as erythromycin and doxycycline. During the treatment period, patients should not drink alcohol, sit for long periods, or ride bicycles for an extended time. Treatment can also be complemented with sitz baths and prostate massage. (Please use medication under the guidance of a doctor.)

Can chronic prostatitis of twenty years be surgically removed?

Chronic prostatitis, which has lasted for twenty years, cannot be removed through surgery. Generally, prostatitis is treated with medication and surgery is not an option. Patients with chronic prostatitis can visit the urology or andrology department of their local hospital for a systematic examination and treatment. The initial step is to conduct a bacterial culture of the prostatic fluid, along with a drug sensitivity test. Based on the results, the pathogen causing the infection is identified, and the antibiotics to which this pathogen is sensitive are determined. Then, treatment proceeds with these sensitive antibiotics. Additionally, patients can take warm water sitz baths every evening and regularly visit the hospital for prostate massages.

Can chronic prostatitis be detected by B-ultrasound?

Chronic prostatitis cannot be detected by ultrasound. Ultrasound can only observe the size of the prostate and whether there are nodules inside the prostate gland, but it cannot diagnose whether a patient has chronic prostatitis. Chronic prostatitis must be diagnosed through routine examination of prostate fluid. Patients can visit the urology department of their local hospital for this examination. The first step involves prostate massage. Through this massage, prostate fluid is extracted from the external opening of the urethra, and then this fluid is tested in the laboratory for diagnosis.

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.
