What should I do if my prostate leukocytes are 1 plus?

Prostatic fluid examination shows 1 plus sign in white blood cells, which can be treated through observation and follow-up, lifestyle adjustment, warm water sitz bath, drug intervention, regular review, etc. It may be related to factors such as mild prostatitis, urinary reflux, prolonged sitting, spicy diet, local cold, etc.

1. Observation and follow-up

If the simple white blood cell count is 1 plus and there are no symptoms such as frequent urination and painful urination, it may be a physiological fluctuation. It is recommended to review the prostate fluid routine after 3 months, and pay attention to the urination during this period. Avoid psychological burden caused by excessive stress. Physiological leukocyte elevation is usually related to sampling contamination or temporary congestion.

2. Adjust your lifestyle

Drink 1500 ml of water every day and avoid cycling or sitting for more than 2 hours for a long time. Reduce the intake of chili pepper and alcohol in your diet, and maintain a regular schedule to ensure 7 hours of sleep. Moderate levator ani exercises can improve local circulation. These measures can help reduce the probability of prostate congestion.

3. Warm water sitz bath

Taking a sitz bath with 40℃ warm water for 15 minutes every night can promote pelvic blood circulation. Pay attention to keeping the perineum clean and dry, and wear loose cotton underwear. This method relieves ductal edema through physical heat therapy and is helpful for leukocytosis caused by aseptic inflammation.

4. Drug intervention

If there is lower abdominal distension or urinary discomfort, you can use tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release capsules to relax the urethral smooth muscle, or ibuprofen sustained-release capsules for anti-inflammatory and analgesic according to the doctor's advice. Bacterial prostatitis requires quinolones such as levofloxacin tablets, and the prescribed course of treatment must be completed.

5. Regular review

After the medication is completed, routine prostate fluid examination and urinary tract ultrasound should be reviewed. Those with persistent abnormalities should rule out chronic prostatitis or prostate stones. Patients over 50 years old are recommended to undergo PSA testing. Long-term elevated white blood cells may require prostate massage and drainage.

You can eat pumpkin seeds, tomatoes and other foods containing zinc and lycopene in moderation every day to avoid holding back urine and cold stimulation. Choose gentle exercise such as swimming and brisk walking, and wear breathable clothing to keep the area dry. Strictly follow the doctor's instructions when taking medications, and do not increase or decrease the dosage or change medications on your own. If fever, hematuria or severe pain occurs, seek medical attention immediately to prevent the development of chronic prostatitis or other urinary system complications.
