Non-bacterial prostatitis

First, B-ultrasound examination of non-bacterial prostatitis

It shows that the structure of the prostate tissue is unclear and disordered, which may indicate prostatitis.

Second, rectal examination of non-bacterial prostatitis

The prostate is plump, enlarged, soft, and mildly tender. If the disease is long, the prostate will become smaller, harder, uneven in texture and have a small induration. At the same time, the prostate massage method is used to obtain the prostate fluid for a routine examination.

Third, prostatic fluid examination non-bacterial prostatitis

The leukocytes in the prostatic fluid are more than 10 in the microscope high-power field, and the lecithin body is reduced, which can be diagnosed as prostatitis. If bacterial culture is performed at the same time, a clear diagnosis and classification of chronic prostatitis can be made. For example, if the bacterial culture of prostatitis is positive, the diagnosis of chronic bacterial prostatitis is diagnosed.

Diagnosis and identification of non-bacterial prostatitis

Non-bacterial prostatitis must be differentiated from other specific prostatitis, especially chronic bacterial prostatitis. Sometimes diarrhea and cystitis should be considered in differential diagnosis, in middle-aged and elderly patients with irritating urination and negative bacterial culture. In male patients, it should also be carefully analyzed whether there is a bladder tumor, especially the presence of bladder cancer. In addition to urine cytology, cystoscopy should be performed.
