Are Antibiotics Necessary To Treat Serratia Liquefaciens In Sperm?

Hi! The urologist diagnosis a prostatitis at me. At research of my sperm he have found out Serratia liquefaciens. Treatment by antibiotics is recommended to me. Whether you consider it necessary? As far as I know Serratia liquefaciens are conditionally pathogenic microorganisms. Sorry for my English. Yours faithfully, Georgiy, Russia.

Hello,

The Serratia liquefication sperm means obvious involvement of seminiferous tubules and ductus deference via underlying bacterial infection.

My guidelines at present
- start intravenous antibiotic therapy as per the culture sensitivity report of your lab
- hydration maintenance with plenty of liquids
- prostatic massage therapeutically
- anti-inflammatory medications with proteolytic enzymes
- probiotics and prebiotics to avoid secondary intestine flora damage from current therapy.

- avoid smoking or alcohol if consuming
- avoid sex activities if active at present
- control of blood sugar
- genital hygiene
- balanced nutritious diet to combat the infection at a better faster pace.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
