The recommended time for a sitz bath for prostatitis is 3-5min, and it is not recommended to take a sitz bath for too long. The main purpose of a sitz bath for prostatitis can reduce local inflammation, promote the absorption of inflammation, relieve the symptoms of pelvic floor spasm, and help with frequent, urgent and painful urination. It is recommended that prostatitis patients should take a sitz bath every day. The water temperature of the sitz bath should not be greater than 40°C and the sitz bath time should be 3-5min. Don’t take too long because too long sitz bath and too high water temperature may cause the testicular function to be affected. It is recommended that patients with prostatitis should standardize their medication, assist with sitz baths and the prevention of daily life.
