Article Excerpts about Chronic bacterial prostatitis
Chronic bacterial prostatitis is also relatively uncommon. It
is acute prostatitis associated with an underlying defect in the
prostate, a focal point for bacterial persistence in the urinary tract.
Effective treatment usually requires identifying and removing the defect
and then treating the infection with antibiotics. However, antibiotics
often do not cure it.
