My brother had complaints of frequent urination and mild scrotal pain. The doctor advised a flexible cystoscopy and the report showed Urethra: No stricture Prostate: Normal size with inflammation + Bladder: Normal BUO: Normal Impression: Prostatitis Three days later, a bladder urine report showed: Urine RE: Normal Urine culture & sensitivity: Colony count nil, culture sterile after 48 hours The doctor advised: Normal diet Plenty of fluids Tab Niftas 100 mg for 1 month Urispas for 2 days Tab Pause for 2 days Syrup Alkasol for 1 month After one month, on review, he was symptom free, so no further medicines were prescribed. Now, he has mild, ignorable scrotal pain for some days. What could be the cause? Could prostatitis recur? Can prostatitis cause prostate cancer? Please help

Yes, prostatitis can recur but does not directly cause prostate cancer. Avoid sitting long, hydrate well. Repeat urine test if symptoms persist.

Take a URINE ROUTINE + CULTURE SENSITIVITY Test or Take a PSA Test (Prostatic Specific Antigen) Test

I have attached my urine report. One doctor advised me to take Uribid 100 mg twice a day. I am currently on day 25 after COVID, with a temperature around 99.2F. My CRP is 0.1, CBC is normal, and D dimer is 90. Based on my urine report, could you please advise if I need to take Uribid 100 mg twice daily?

After delivery, I have noticed some yellow vaginal discharge. I had a Pap smear test, which came back negative, but the report mentioned mild inflammation. Someone recommended the following medications: Forcan 140, Clingen Forte and Candid Cream. Are these safe to take? Could you suggest alternative or more appropriate treatment if needed?

Urine test report for my 10 month old baby shows pus cells 2 to 3 and epithelial cells 3 to 4. Is there any infection in her urine, as she takes a 12 hour gap to pass urine?
