Drug therapy: antibiotics or α1-adrenergic receptor blockers can be used. (1) Antibiotic treatment: most of the quinolones such as levofloxacin are used for treatment, in addition to tetracycline can be used for treatment. (2) α1-adrenergic receptor blockers: these drugs, such as tamsulosin, can help to relieve the spasm of the bladder neck and prostate urethra to a certain extent to improve the patient’s urinary flow rate, to promote the emptying of the bladder, and improve the symptoms. 2. Physical therapy: microwave, radiofrequency heat therapy can be used to promote local blood circulation in the prostate gland and reduce inflammation. 3. Prostate massage therapy: appropriate massage can make the patient’s prostate gland become soft, which can promote the patient’s prostate emptying. 4. Psychotherapy: appropriate psychotherapy can eliminate the negative emotions of the patient, reduce the patient’s psychological burden, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease. The above drugs should be used under the guidance of a doctor. The clinical symptoms of this disease are varied, and individualized treatment based on symptoms should be carried out under the guidance of professional doctors.
