The major clinical symptoms of seminal vesiculitis are hemospermia, accompanied by increased frequency of urination, the urgency of urination, the discomfort of urination, perineal discomfort and other symptoms, often coexisting with prostatitis. The general etiology and pathogenesis of seminal vesicle inflammation are that pathogenic factors entered inside from outside, resulting in viscera disorders, disharmony between qi and the blood, resulting in damaged seminal vesicle collaterals. 

 

Traditional Chinese medicine treats it mostly based on the "blood" theory, using the methods of "cooling blood to stop bleeding", "nourishing blood to stop bleeding", "invigorating Qi to absorb blood" and "activating blood to stop bleeding" respectively, which have better effects on most patients with seminal vesiculitis.
