Patient's question:
Male, 28 years old, diagnosed with prostatitis three years ago after experiencing discomfort and undergoing a check-up. In these years, it has been recurring frequently, and it hasn't fully resolved. My wife has also been unable to conceive, which makes me very distressed. Could you please tell me: What are the symptoms of prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Patients with prostatitis often experience symptoms such as frequent urination, a burning sensation and pain during urination. Occasionally, there may be early morning discharge from the urethral meatus, including mucus and pus. In severe cases, symptoms may also include a white discharge during bowel movements and cloudy urine. At the same time, pain is also a primary symptom of prostatitis, and in severe cases, it may spread to the perineum, lower abdomen, and lower back. Different causes can lead to different symptoms. Patients need to seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable Grade III-A hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific condition to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against cold and keep warm, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
