Urologist,  's  Response
hello
Thanks for query .

You have been diagnosed to have Prostatitis and is prescribed Loxof,Urimaxand and Niftran by your Urologist .

Prostatitis is a notorious disease and embarrassing both for patients and treating physician .It takes long tome to get cured hence one has to take appropriate antibiotic for 6-8 weeks .

I would suggest to get swab test and culture of urethral discharge obtained after doing prostate massage so that you can take appropriate antibiotic as per culture report .This will help to resolve the issue faster .
