Chronic prostatitis is mostly non-bacterial prostatitis. Common causes are factors related to sex life such as excessive sexual activity, excessive suppression of ejaculation, interrupted sexual intercourse, or long-distance riding, long-term perineum pressure, etc., which lead to pelvic and prostate congestion. In addition, it can also be caused by non-bacterial infections such as trichomonas, chlamydia trachomatis, and fungi.

Clinical manifestations include frequent urination, discomfort and pain during urination, white secretions may flow out during urination and defecation, commonly known as "white discharge" (combined with seminal vesiculitis, hematospermia), soreness and discomfort in the lumbosacral, perineal or pubic region, sexual dysfunction such as impotence, premature ejaculation, and ejaculation pain, in addition to mental and neurological symptoms such as insomnia, dizziness, and fatigue. Rectal digital examination shows enlarged and mildly tender prostate, which may become scarred if it lasts for too long. Treatment is to avoid eating irritating foods, moderate sexual life, hot water sitz baths, physical therapy or prostate massage to promote the absorption and drainage of inflammation. The treatment time is uncertain.

The length of treatment depends entirely on the patient's condition, constitution and recovery ability. Some people recover quickly after early treatment, but some people take up to a year to treat. Therefore, to treat chronic prostatitis, you must go to a regular hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
