What should I do if my dog has prostatitis?

Going to the hospital to treat dog prostatitis usually involves conservative anti-inflammation, pain relief, oral medication after injection, or surgical removal of the testicles to control the secretion of male hormones and control the prostate. If prostatitis has severe cysts or cancer, prostate removal is required. In addition, severe antibiotic treatment should be continued for at least 6 weeks. After the treatment is stopped, the prostatic fluid should be re-examined. If there is persistent infection, long-term low-dose drug treatment should be continued for 3 to 6 months. The dose is half of the normal daily dose. Trimethoprim is available.
Preventive measures for dog prostatitis:
1. Empty the urine in the bladder first, massage the prostate through the rectum, collect prostate fluid for culture and use as medicine Sensitivity testing is conducted to select antibiotics, along with symptomatic treatments such as antipyretic analgesia, laxatives, and urinary catheterization.
2. For prostate abscess, if the above methods are ineffective, surgery should be performed to drain the pus and perform external fistula surgery.
3. Clinical experience has proven that neutering dogs can promote the recovery of prostatitis.
