Unknow?: Remember: behind what we know always hides a lot of what we still don't know chronic non-bacterial prostatitis is a diagnosis of exclusion. The above fact and notion applies to it also. In management, to a sense, we handle its related symptoms including irritative or obstructive voiding symptoms or local discomfort with medications, reassurance, adjusting expectation... See expert as needed.

Prostatitis: mainly, because it is not caused by bacteria and therefore does not respond to any anabiotic. since we don't know what starts the information process, we really don't know how to turn it off.
