Chronic prostatitis is not a lifelong disease; it can be cured with proper examination and treatment. Patients with chronic prostatitis should not be overly burdened mentally and should actively visit the urology or andrology department of their local hospital for systematic examination. Initially, a bacterial culture of the prostatic fluid should be conducted, along with a drug sensitivity test. By performing prostate massage, prostatic fluid is obtained from the urethral meatus onto a slide, which is then sent for laboratory testing. Based on the results, the pathogen and the antibiotics it is sensitive to are identified, and then the appropriate sensitive antibiotics are selected for the treatment.
