Patient's question:
Male, 45. I've been feeling uncomfortable at the urethral opening when urinating recently. When it's cold, there's an increase in urination frequency, and the urine lacks strength. I'm very scared, fearing a serious illness. Please ask what are the causes of frequent urination and urgency?Doctor's answer:
Recurring frequent urination and urgency should first be considered as issues related to the urinary system infection and prostatitis. Prostatitis is mainly caused by direct spread through the urinary tract infection, hematogenous dissemination from other parts of the body, and various factors leading to prostatitis-induced blood flow, such as excessive alcohol consumption, prolonged sexual stimulation, prolonged sitting, tight clothing, and perineal injury. Prostatitis is divided into acute and chronic types: Acute prostatitis is an acute inflammation caused by bacterial invasion of the prostate. Patients experience chills, fever, decreased body temperature, and perineal pain, as well as painful ejaculation during sexual activity.
