Prostatitis requires rectal fingerprinting, prostate fluid examination, and urine and blood tests, and is more accurately diagnosed in combination with clinical symptoms.
1. Rectal examination: this examination is necessary, the doctor can find that the prostate gland is swollen, smooth, elevated temperature, and obvious pressure pain. If there is pus formation, there may be a fluctuating sensation when touched.
2. Prostate fluid examination: If the white blood cells in the prostate fluid are greater than 10 high power visual fields, it means that there is inflammation of the prostate, which may be chronic bacterial prostatitis or chronic pelvic pain syndrome.
3. Urine and blood tests: Urine and blood results suggest leukocytosis, mostly considered acute bacterial prostatitis.
4. Clinical Symptoms: In chronic bacterial prostatitis or chronic pelvic pain syndrome, the patient’s perineum, suprapubic, perianal and other places will be distended or hidden pain. In the case of acute bacterial prostatitis, the patient will also have a sudden fever, fatigue, anorexia and other systemic symptoms.
When patients are detected with prostatitis, they need to actively cooperate with doctors for standardized treatment and strengthen daily life management.
